Call for Roundtables

A limited number of slots for roundtable discussions are available. Roundtable discussions may draw together key researchers in a field to discuss a particularly pertinent theme or topic. Priority will be given to roundtables that address the broad theme of the conference on alternative futures for planning. Please supply abstracts for a roundtable that include:

A title
The core question or issues to be discussed in the roundtable
The relevance of this question or issue to planning scholarship, education, or practice
A list of a minimum of 3 invited speakers (with contact details), who should have indicated that they are willing to speak at the roundtable

Submission

The deadline for abstract submissions has now passed.

If you missed the deadline but are still interested in presenting a paper then please email prc2018@sheffield.ac.uk and we will see what we can do.

Track chairs will review abstracts for acceptance, and will also use the information provided to gather papers together into sessions. Abstracts will be published and collected in a Book of Abstracts, so please do ensure that your text is suitable for publication.

Authors and roundtable organisers will be notified about the acceptance of their abstract by Friday the 27th of July.
