Participation

WHICH PROCEDURES FOLLOWS?

The participation at the conference will be in-person or online; the participants will choose either one or the other when registering at the conference. To take part in these meetings those interested will need to follow the next steps:

  1. Sending of papers, for those who want to share their studies at the work-groups (both in-person and online). The template for the writing up of the text has to be downloaded here. The summary must include some key ideas and questions that want to be discussed in group (the organization will group the proposals of the participants in panel discussions according to their common points and similarities in the studies and the questions/key ideas that they deal with). The papers will go through a double-blind peer review evaluation.
  2. Selection of workshop to participate in it (in-person, there will be a maximum capacity for each workshop). They will be implemented in the afternoon.

The conference will result in the publication (with ISBN) of the presented papers. We are pursuing the publication of the better assessed papers by the scientific committee in a well recognized academic journal.
