This conference will close the UK Economic and Social Research Council 
(ESRC) review of “Ways of being in a digital age”.  The project was 
commissioned by the ESRC to help identify and prioritise future areas 
and methods for research on the social, economic, political, 
psychological and cultural impacts of digital media and technologies. 
The final report will be published over the summer of 2017.

Led by the University of Liverpool, the project team consists of 
academics from eight UK universities and a broader international 
steering group that represents 18 universities and organisations from 
across the UK, France, the USA and Singapore. For more information on 
the people involved in this research: https://waysofbeingdigital.com/people.

To close the project, we are holding an academic conference to present, 
extend and deepen the work of the project team.  We are calling for 
review papers on topics that address any aspect of the seven project 
domains:

1.	Citizenship and politics
2.	Communities and identities
3.	Communication and relationships
4.	Health and wellbeing
5.	Economy and sustainability
6.	Data and representation
7.	Governance and security

We are looking papers that offer systematic, thematic or methodological 
reviews of existing research on any aspect of the seven project domains. 
We are particularly interested in papers that build on reviews to offer 
analysis of research gaps and challenges for social research in the 
digital age. We intend to include the conference papers in an edited 
collection developed from the project.

Abstract submissions are sought by 21st July 2017 to: 
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wbda2017
