This year's TASA Conference will, once again, involve a number of panel discussions as part of the main program. Panel sessions will run for 1.5 hours and be scheduled concurrent with general paper sessions.

Panel submissions should speak to our conference theme, 'Living Now: Social Worlds, Political Landscapes' and should involve at least three and, ideally, no more than four papers. Panel proposals will be accepted from current TASA members and should aim to transcend the focus of an individual TASA thematic group.

Prior to submission, panel organisers are expected to source and confirm all abstracts and presenter information for their proposed panel session. Panel organisers will also be expected to review panel abstracts and nominate a Chair for their session (who must commit to being physically present at the conference). It is strongly advised not to include more than one or two online presentations in a panel session.

The panel title and description, along with the session titles and abstracts for each nominated presenter, should be submitted by Monday 20 May (extended deadline) by clicking on the button above. Decisions on Panel Proposals will be notified by late-June 2024.

Please Note: panel sessions will be allocated to the conference program by the TASA conference convener & events manager. Panel sessions will be scheduled to suit conference planning and will be held from Wednesday 27th November - Friday 30th November 2024.

For panel sessions not accepted for inclusion in the program, individual presenters nominated within the panel proposal may still be considered for a thematic group presentation.
