Call for Workshops and Papers

Guidelines for Presentations

You are invited to submit proposals for presentations at the AWE 2006 conference . There are three different modes of presentation - papers, workshops and roundtables. Details of these are given below.

Papers
Papers should address one or more of the conference themes/foci. A one hour timeslot will be available - 30 minutes for the paper presentation and 30 minutes for questions and discussion. It is most important to adhere to these time limits particularly to allow time for discussion. A copy of the paper should be made available to the conference secretariat prior to or at registration, both in print and on disk in computer readable format, IBM compatible. Paper should be no more than 3500 words, printed in 12 point type, ideally Times Roman.

Workshops
Workshops should address one or more of the conference themes/foci. Workshops may be up to 90 minutes. The number of participants in a workshop will be limited to 20 people to enable effective interaction. Workshop presenters are asked to provide a brief description of the process and content of the workshop to be used over the two hours and an indication of the intended audience. Workshop participants are invited to write a brief report or submit recommendations to the AWE Executive for subsequent implementation.

Roundtables
Roundtable will provide opportunities for people interested in exchanging ideas around particular themes or topics. The person proposing each roundtable will be expected to initiate discussion by raising key concerns or issues although a formal presentation is not necessary. A one hour timeslot will be available for a roundtable.

Special Interest
Conference Organisers particularly encourage abstracts focussing on issues of relevance to indigenous women and girls in education.

Instructions for submitting abstracts

Please submit an abstract of no more than 150 words to the organising committee by 31 July 2006 Abstracts should be sent by email .

Please note that paper, workshop and roundtable presenters are required to pay the normal conference registration fee.
