CALL FOR PRACTITIONER TALKS


Please note: The deadline for this call has passed on March 15th 2024. However, the information on the calls will stay available online so you can look it up in case you need it.

Track 17 – Practitioner Track

Following the ISCRAM tradition and the conference vision, crisis management practitioners are invited to present their work in the practitioner track. Unlike other tracks, which require a CoRe- or WiP-paper for presentation, ISCRAM 2024 is adopting a novel approach informed by feedback from practitioner communities. We encourage practitioners to share their experiences, realities, and insights on current ISCRAM challenges and solutions through talks, without the need for paper submissions. This initiative aims to facilitate the sharing of pertinent ISCRAM topics and foster stronger collaboration between academics and practitioners.

The poster and demonstration-sessions will be co-chaired by Nicola Rupp & Bart van Leeuwen. If you have any questions, please refer to the central email address or to the corresponding chair.

TRACK TOPICS & HOW TO SUBMIT?

The theme of the ISCRAM 2024 is “Embracing the Crisis Management Lifecycle.” This theme emphasizes a holistic and integrated process view of crisis management to overcome isolated considerations of crisis management lifecycle phases. It highlights the significance of well-structured roles, tasks, and processes in fostering effective communication and collaboration among stakeholders. In line with our pracademic approach, we eagerly anticipate insights from practitioners. If you wish to contribute your process-centric perspective on crisis management, please submit a brief abstract of your presentation.

Your presentation should be a talk lasting approximately 10-15 minutes. To be considered, please submit an abstract of your talk. The abstract, limited to 400 words, should outline the main theme of your presentation and its connection to the ISCRAM theme. Additionally, include details about your practitioner organization, your role there, and your relationship to the topic being discussed. Upon submission, the track chairs and selected pracademic experts with expertise in your topic’s domain will review your contribution.

The participation in the ISCRAM practitioner track is free. However, participants in the practitioner track must register for the main conference. All submissions will be made electronically using the ISCRAM paper template. Please send your abstract as a PDF document to iscram2024@ercis.org by March 15th, 2024 latest. The review results will be published by the 22nd of March 2024. In case of further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us via email.
