Workshop Proposals

Workshops are typically interactive and hands-on sessions that allow attendees to learn practical skills or techniques, explore specific topics in more depth, and engage in discussions with other participants and experts in the field. 

  • Workshops can provide attendees with opportunities to learn new techniques, approaches, and methodologies that they can apply to their work or research.
  • Workshops offer a platform for attendees to connect with other participants who share similar interests and expertise. They can exchange ideas, establish new collaborations, and build relationships that can lead to future opportunities.
  • Workshops can attract a diverse range of attendees, including students, researchers, industry professionals, and policymakers.
  • Workshops can provide a space for participants to explore new and innovative ideas and approaches.

General Guidelines:

Workshops are designed to enable participants to achieve desired learning objectives that include increased knowledge, further understanding, and enhanced skills.

The conference will feature both half-day and full-day workshops and we urge interested parties to submit their proposals before the submission deadline. All proposals received after this deadline will not be accepted for inclusion.

The organizers of the workshops agree that:

  • All the co-organisers and presenters must participate in the conference.
  • Organizers should ensure that each workshop must be planned for a minimum of 10 participants, and must be either half-day (3 hours) or full-day (6 hours) in length.
  • Organizers should ensure that co-organisers and presenters do not submit their workshop proposals as single abstract.
  • Organizers should ensure that all the presenters must register for the conference beforehand.

Workshop & Presentation Types

The main aim behind the inclusion of workshops is to facilitate the transfer of knowledge through audience interactions. Workshops can be 3 to 6 hours in length, depending on the subject matter and relevance of the topics discussed.

Organizers should select the workshop type and their preferred duration, in the workshop proposal. The following are the available possible workshop types:

  • Regular workshop: 1 to 3 hours sessions with up to 5 presentations. Such workshops allow ample time for audience interactions.
  • Skills building workshop: 3 to 6 hours sessions, organized to specifically build the capacity and knowledge of conference delegates. These workshops include only 1-3 presentations and focus a majority of their time on collaborative learning and skill development.

Usually workshops would be panned with a number of presentations that will be followed by a discussion. The maximum limit of abstract submissions allowed for this type is 5. Workshops that combine 1-2 presentations with a panel discussion are still considered to be regular workshops. In these cases, we urge you to add the number of abstracts, and include the names and affiliations of the panellists.

Technical Guidelines:

  • Each workshop room will be equipped with one screen and one podium.
  • Workshop Presenters will be equipped with microphones when required.
  • Workshop rooms are not equipped with speakers, and requests for speakers must be made in advance.
  • Presenters are expected to carry their own laptops. In case you are using a Mac, make sure to carry any necessary cables to connect to the projector.
  • Presenters are expected to carry any workshop related material, including an electronic copy of their workshop presentation
  • Wireless internet connectivity will be available throughout the conference space.

Proposal Guidelines:

Proposals on all topics related to scientific research should be structured as follows:

  • Briefly explain the objectives and reasons for the workshop. This section can include information such as - the value of the workshop, coherence between the presentation and related topic of the workshop, etc. Additionally, describe the format of your workshop in this section. The maximum number of words is 250.
