  • The conference will primarily be conducted in English, and scholars are highly encouraged to use this language. However, proposals for papers in French and Persian will also be taken into account.
  • PhD candidates in the final stages of their program and young researchers are strongly encouraged to submit their proposals.
  • Pre-organized panels and individual paper proposals undergo a peer-review process by a Program Committee of scholars.
  • All applicants will receive notifications regarding their proposal status in May of 2024. This will give the approved candidates ample time to secure funding through their respective institutions and apply for Romanian entry visas if needed.
