    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Komitas Institute is pleased to announce that its
    London symposium, "Remembering Adana 1909: A Hundred Year Perspective",
    at the London School of Economics on 28 March 2009 has been changed
    and will now take place at Sabanci University in Istanbul on 6-7
    November 2009. The new time and venue was recently agreed and the
    meeting will take place with the sponsorship of the Komitas Institute,
    the Hrant Dink Foundation and Sabanci University.

    "Holding our symposium on Adana 1909 in Istanbul later on this year
    was an opportunity we could not miss" said Ara Sarafian, the current
    director of the Gomidas Institute. "The Adana massacres of 1909 are
    part of Ottoman history and there is already great interest to have
    such a meeting in Turkey. We plan to broaden our approach with a new
    call for papers to encourage more Turkish participants."
