There will be pre and post sessions for early career researchers, six working-group sessions, two keynote speakers, a panel, two whole group working sessions, and an excursion.

The detailed programme will be sent to the registered participants.

For the working sessions, based on the papers received, conference leaders will form sub-groups. Each participant will participate consistently in the assigned sub-group. Whole group sessions will be designed to engage across the sub-groups.
