If you submit an abstract or a case for an individual presentation, your submission will be considered by the conference selection committee and be put alongside the other individual submissions for coherence and added value.
If you submit an abstract for an organised session, your submission will be considered by the conference selection committee and be put alongside the other proposals for added value. An organised session involves a mix of speakers and a session format. During an organised session you coordinate the complete session (1h). For this you will be working together with the conference task force.
We specifically urge our friends and colleagues of LMICs, young professionals, women, representatives of indigenous population groups and people living with disabilities to submit their work.
Online & hybrid
Take into account that all sessions will be online or hybrid, and that all of them will be sent out via Zoom to an online audience. In case of the online sessions on 23 March, there will be the possibility to work in breakout rooms. In case of the hybrid sessions on 24 March, working in breakout rooms is not possible.
Simultaneous interpretation
Two of the four planned parallel sessions will be translated from English to French and back. The other two sessions will be able to run in one of both languages, considering the language preference of the registered participants.
Speaker travel information
A limited number of travel grants can be made available to on-site speakers whose abstracts have been accepted for an oral or poster presentation. Given the urgent need to halt the climate emergency, we ask speakers to limit air travel. Air travel can only be supported when the speaker is able to integrate the conference participation in a wider visit programme to Europe.
Accessibilty of the conference
We are committed to ensuring that the Be-cause health conference is as inclusive as possible.
If you will be selected / are planning to attend the conference, and you need specific access enquiries/requirements, these can be included in the registration form which will come online later.
Deadline to submit is 6 January 2023 – midnight, CET (Brussels time).
