It seems interesting that the organisers have taken the IGU meeting to the infamous military school ,perhaps to show that any thing like brutal force to oppress is a phenomena that is bound to die out. but accademicia is not to be dictated as an demonostratve tool to prove something ,rather it requires conditions for thought and creativity that needs to be free of all such burdens of tremendous violation of Human rights and therefore explicit acknowledgment and commitment to discuss such issues at the venue/conference must surely be a prerequisite. A site like this must be avoided given its history until and unless there is such acknowledgment/commitment I join to call for an alternative venue for the IGU conference.
