The 1st ICRM will focus on exploring the field of Rural Management, and how its thematic areas intersect with, and underpin the efforts towards sustainable development. Clearly, effective management of programs and organizations is crucial to attainment of the SDGs; but as the organizational landscape for rural development transforms, established ways are increasingly giving way to innovative and emergent strategies and practices. Systematic and critical consideration of these is necessary. Papers and cases are also invited on innovative initiatives and practices in all functional areas and sectors of rural development management.
