Call for Symposia

Call for Symposia: Global Rock Art Research and Heritage Conference

 

We invite proposals for symposia to be held at the upcoming Global Rock Art Research and Heritage Conference. This is an exciting opportunity for participants to chair topic-based sessions, bringing together specialist scholars and experts in specific areas of rock art research and heritage.

Symposium Chair Responsibilities:

As a symposium chair, you will have the autonomy to organize and lead a session focused on a particular theme or topic of your choosing.

You will be responsible for:

Selecting a Theme: Choose a relevant and engaging theme within the field of rock art research and heritage.

Inviting Speakers: Assemble a group of distinguished scholars and experts to present papers or engage in discussions during your session.

Coordinating the Session: Ensure that your symposium runs smoothly, adhering to the conference schedule and guidelines.

Benefits of Organizing a Symposium:

Leadership Opportunity: Establish yourself as a leader in your field by curating a session that showcases cutting-edge research.

Networking: Build professional connections with other experts and scholars who share your interests.
Visibility: Increase the visibility of your research and the work of your colleagues within the global academic community.

Parallel Sessions and Venue Flexibility:

Given the potential for more than four days of presentations, the conference is prepared to accommodate parallel sessions to ensure a smooth and efficient schedule. Previous conferences have successfully managed 6-8 parallel sessions over five-day periods, and we anticipate similar arrangements this year. Therefore, the venue is designed to be flexible, with facilities capable of supporting multiple simultaneous sessions.

 

Submission Guidelines:

Proposal Deadline: January 31, 2025
Submission Format: Proposals should include a title, a brief description of the symposium’s theme, and a list of potential speakers (if available).
