  While virtual communication through the website and the joint HEIRS-RICHIE mailing list is integral to our activities, we also appreciate the advantages of real-life debate and socializing professionally.
         
  HEIRS conferences    
         
  Conceptualized and organized by postgraduate researchers, the annual HEIRS conferences are characterized by their professional yet informal environment, which is the basis for a truly open debate among participants. Following a series of successful conferences at the University of Cambridge (2004), the University of Portsmouth (2005), and the Graduate Institute of International Studies, Geneva (2007), HEIRS invites postgraduate researchers to participate in the fourth colloquium.
