? Research methods, method integration and techniques
? Cultural and normative differences in eParticipation
? Comparative analyses of eParticipation practices
? eParticipation projects: design,
implementation, evaluation, quality and impact

? Education, training courses, and curricula
The conference allows for four distinct types of submissions:
? Completed research papers
