Call for Papers: British Society for Population Studies (BSPS) 2020 Conference

Posted: 3/3/2020 (Conference)

The 2020 BSPS Conference will be held at the University of Leicester, Stamford Court, 14‐16 September. All Conference sessions will be on site, where Conference catering & accommodation will also be available. Booking forms will be available from late May, together with a provisional timetable. It is anticipated there will be one plenary lecture plus a plenary panel. There will be a full programme of simultaneous strand sessions of submitted papers: proposals and abstracts for papers & posters are invited across the entire demographic & population studies spectrum. Whilst any approach is welcome, a submission should have a demographic or population studies focus. Empirical submissions for oral presentations should include some results, these may well be preliminary at the time of submission.

Please submit online by midnight on Monday 20 April. A short abstract of up to 250 words is requested. Empirical submissions should cover research question, methods, data, results or preliminary results, & potential applications. Extended abstracts are optional & must be sent separately; these can help in the final selection of papers. Up to 4 double‐spaced A4 sheets in PDF format only may be emailed to pic@lse.ac.uk with ‘BSPS extended abstract’ and the intended strand or session in the title line. Extended abstracts are not a substitute for formal online submissions: this process should still be completed. Organisers may request further details of a submission before final decisions are made. Short abstracts will appear on the Conference website. Extended abstracts are for information purposes only. Choose an appropriate strand or session and submit online at: https://lsewebsite.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/bsps‐conference‐2020‐online‐submission‐form If you are unable to submit online, please contact pic@lse.ac.uk for alternative arrangements.
