*Call for panels: IFIP 9.4 Conference Lima, Peru 2022
<https://ifip.ue.edu.pe/>*
We are inviting proposals for panel presentations on topics
relevant to the
IFIP 9.4 community and broadly in keeping with the conference
theme: *Freedom
and Social Inclusion in a Connected World*.
A panel should aim to present a variety of views on a topical
issue in the
ICT4D field, to generate debate amongst the panellists and to
engage the
audience in that debate. Thus, there should be potential for
different
positions to be put forward for the chosen topic and the proposal
should
make it clear how the panel will present these different
positions. Good
candidates for panel topics would be those arising from
controversies,
academic debates, new research agendas, global/geopolitical
challenges,
innovations and transformational technological advances and so
forth.
The panel proposals will be reviewed by the Programme Chairs
taking into
account: a panel topic that will attract an audience, a panel
composition
that offers a variety of voices, and a panel format that will
encourage
audience participation.
Panel proposals should conform to the following guidelines:
· Maximum of three A4 pages in length, consisting of:
o An introduction to the panel topic demonstrating its importance
to the
field
o An exposition of the varying positions held on the topic and how
these
engender debate
o A section with short biographies (max. 100 words) of each
panellist
o A references section
· Each panel should comprise a moderator and a maximum of 4
panellists
· The panel format should aim to complete all panellists’ debate
and audience engagement in 90 minutes, with at least 30 minutes
for
audience engagement
Should the panel proposal be accepted, it would be expected that
all
panellists should commit to attending the conference.
Panel proposals should be submitted no later than *14th March
2022* to the
programme chairs, using our email addresses below. Acceptance
decisions of
panel proposals will take place on *15th April 2022*.
