Program

  • We aim to have gender and geographical balance: in the speaker selection, it will be exercised care and attention to guarantee a gender balance and a geographical representativity. 
  • We invite speakers diverse in social identities, geographical location, background/training, methodological approaches, and research topics.
  • We encourage speakers and presenters to create presentations and posters with accessible fonts and character sizes to help partially-sighted and neurodivergent participants.
  • Downloadable program in a PDF format shortly before and during event days.

Conference organisation and environment

  • Safer Space Policy: A safer space policy aims to foster an environment of respect, which makes all participants feel welcome – particularly those who are typically marginalized or excluded, whether by gender, sex, race, religion, (dis)ability, sexual orientation, geographical location, and personal background. Differing opinions and perspectives are crucial to effective discussion but all attendees ultimately take responsibility for their speech and behaviour – in person and on social media – throughout the entire event and associated social gatherings.
  • In respect of the transgender community, the pronouns of the participants will be asked during the registration on an optional basis. 
  • Social gatherings (such as coffee breaks, lunches, or conference dinners) are organized for participants to be able to network and socialize.
