ECSAS 2027 Call for Panels

 

The call for panel proposals is open from 3 July to 30 September 2026.

 

All panel proposals must include:

  • The panel title;
  • The name(s), affiliation(s), and EASAS membership number(s) of the convener(s);
  • A contact e-mail address;
  • A short abstract and a long abstract describing the panel topic.

 

Panel proposals should clearly highlight any innovative aspects of the panel. The names of prospective paper contributors may also be included (optional).

 

The short abstract must not exceed 300 characters, and the long abstract must not exceed 1,700 characters. Abstracts should be submitted as plain text only. Please note that all panel proposals (and all subsequent paper proposals) must be submitted in English.

 

Please note that all panel conveners must be current EASAS members in good standing, no unpaid invoices at the time of submission. To become a member, visit: https://www.easas.eu/become-a-member/

 

At least one convener of each panel must be affiliated with a European institution.

 

Due to time constraints within the conference programme, participants may convene no more than one panel and present one paper during the conference. This does not prevent potential participants from submitting multiple proposals; however, if more than one proposal is accepted, conveners and/or panelists will be asked to choose only one panel or paper.

 

All panels must be open to submissions. ECSAS requires all accepted panels to be available for paper proposals through the conference website; therefore, panels cannot be closed to additional submissions from the outset.

 

All panel proposals will be evaluated by the Conference Academic Committee. Panel proposers will be notified of the outcome in October 2026.

 

For general enquiries, please contact:

[email protected]

 

Selected panel abstracts will be published on the conference website in 16 November 2026.

 

Call for papers will be open on November 2026 till Junuary 15, 2027.

 

We look forward to welcoming you to Poznań for ECSAS 2027!
