The call for abstracts for ESRS 2019 is now open!
The ESRS conference will host 32 Working Groups https://esrs2019.no/themes/working-groups/ along three thematic areas that will explore rural futures in Europe. Under the core theme of Rural Futures in a Complex World, we identify three further themes which raise questions for rural studies and which necessarily transcend disciplinary boundaries.
1. Innovation, artificial intelligence and digitisation
2. Social justice and rural spaces and places
3. Knowledge production, policymaking and research agendas
We are delighted to be able to offer a variety of formats for our Working Groups. There are 21 traditional long paper sessions. The remaining 11 are a mixture of lightning talks, panel debates, fishbowl sessions and split sessions. We believe this will make for a really exciting conference, offering the opportunity for researchers across Europe to participate in a way that best suits them.
Please follow the instructions on the website to upload your abstract to the relevant Working Group before the deadline of 10th January 2019, https://esrs2019.no/calls/call-for-abstracts/
We look forward to receiving your abstracts!
