The Conference will be structured as follows:
• plenary session
• panel sessions and forums
• working sessions on the main Conference theme
• parallel meetings of the NISPAcee Working Groups...
Papers are invited on the main Conference theme or on the themes of the Working Groups.
Most of the NISPAcee working groups have now been running for several years in the form of projects. Several of the current working groups were established as a result of previous conferences and others were based on proposals put forward by NISPAcee members or partners. Members of the working groups usually meet during the NISPAcee conference in order to present and discuss their research findings and identify themes for further research. These meetings are also open to other conference participants. Contributions from CEE as well as Western countries are welcome, also from those who have no previous contact with WGs. In many cases, the working groups aim to publish their papers in individual publication form. Additional information on the background of the groups can be obtained on the NISPAcee website.
