Call for Flash Presentations
Deadline: March 15, 2018
Please note: our call for Research Presentations has closed. Presenters will be notified before February 28, 2018.
One of the main goals of this conference is to showcase D&I-related research across all of CUNY, to create collaboration opportunities and to help establish CUNY as the world's premier institution for D&I research.
We aim to have all 24 CUNY schools and colleges represented, and every Center or Institute doing relevant work.
If you are affiliated with a school, department, center, institute or other academic unit that conducts qualitative or quantitative research related to Diversity & Inclusion, we want to hear from you! We will hold multiple sessions of Flash Presentations - 3-5 minute presentations that summarize research activities and personnel at relevant academic units.
Flash Presentations will create opportunities for collaboration, and will expose your work to potential sponsors from government agencies, foundations, investment firms and corporations, as well as media outlets that can help disseminate information about your work.
Please note: Flash Presentations are not meant for individual researchers or specific research projects. If you are an individual researcher please contact us, so that we can ensure that your work is mentioned as part of a Flash Presentation for the academic unity in which you belong.
