IASNR is pleased to invite submissions for organized sessions and abstracts for our upcoming June 2025 annual conference! Submissions for organized session proposals are due November 1, 2024. Click here to submit an organized session proposal or abstract.
Organized Sessions represent an opportunity to bring together a group of scholars to present and discuss work focusing on a particular integrative theme or topic.
All organized sessions can be structured in multiple ways:
- A collection of 3-5 thematically-linked oral presentations (with or without a discussant).
- A panel of experts on a given topic.
- A roundtable discussion. An author-meets-critics session.
- A workshop/training activity.
- Or, you can propose your own idea!
Panels and paper sessions will last 90 minutes. Organizer(s) should recruit and receive commitments from participants in advance of proposal submission, and include details regarding who will participate and what they will be doing as part of the session proposal. Organized sessions will be highlighted and given priority in the program.
Abstract Submissions
Abstract submissions are now being considered! Submissions are due February 1, 2025. We do not anticipate an extension beyond that date and strongly encourage you to submit your abstracts well before the deadline. We encourage submissions that are relevant to the symposium theme and those that focus on the interactions between social and ecological systems. Individuals will be limited to serving as lead presenter on only one oral paper presentation. This does not include co-authorship and individuals may present both an oral paper presentation and organize a session, present a poster, or serve on a panel.
Guidelines for Abstracts: Abstracts should be in paragraph form, without bullet points. Additionally, the abstract body should include details regarding the background, purpose, methods, results, and conclusions. Please also indicate the theory/analytical framework for the work and provide a description of the research methods used.
Looking forward to seeing you in Vancouver for the 2025 IASNR Conference!
Please email the IASNR Office ([email protected]) if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
~ IASNR Office and 2025 IASNR Conference Organizer, Mark Shakespear
