Instructions for Presenters

1. Technical programme

The technical programme is organised into a series of sessions linked to the conference themes. The sessions are designed to provide an opportunity for each speaker to present their paper’s research and/or practice contribution, while also providing time for an interactive discussion, chaired by a nominated chairperson. In order that the technical sessions run smoothly, it is important that all speakers and chairpersons adhere to the following guidelines. A copy of the programme will be made available to download from the conference website.
