SPECIAL SESSION ORGANISER
Guidelines
Special Sessions form a very important part of international conferences. These Special Sessions give special emphasis on certain topics within the scope of the Conference Theme.
A SPECIAL SESSION ORGANISER would be responsible to ‘source’ a minimum of three (3) other papers/speakers to make the Session.
The Organiser may present a paper himself and he will be accorded the status of the LEAD SPEAKER (30 mins) of the Special Session and he will also CHAIR the Session to introduce the other speakers, and lead in the discussion..
Some of the guidelines for SPSE-ORGANISERS.
The Organiser determines (in consultation with the Conference Committee) the TOPIC or TITLE of the Special Session.
A special session should have a minimun of three or more speakers (papers) and these papers should be presented at the Conference. Each paper will be given about 15-20 minutes for oral presentation at the Conference.
Upon a confirmation from the ORGANISER of a paper (title and abstract) for the Special Session, with the details of the corresponding author of the paper should be given to the Secretariat:
-for a review by the Conference Committee so that the letter of acceptance can beissued
-to follow-up with information, update of the Conference
-to provide the format guidelines to prepare their texts
-etc etc etc
Should there be papers received in the general submissions that may be appropriate to the special session theme, the ORGANISER shall be given the abstract to review and accept or reject for his Session.
Due to the limited financial budget of the Conference, all special session speakers are required to pay the appropriate registration fee of the Conference (550 US$).
