[ecrea] Call to Host: MeCCSA conferences 2020 and 2021

Tue Sep 26 22:11:11 GMT 2017






*Call to Host: MeCCSA conferences 2020 and 2021*


The Media, Communication and Cultural Studies Association (MeCCSA) is opening a call for proposals for the hosting and organisation of the annual conference for 2020 and 2021.

Following the highly successful MeCCSA conference 2017 held at Leeds, the next annual MeCCSA conference will be hosted in January 2018 by London South Bank University. Stirling will host in 2019.

Our annual conference is a valuable opportunity for colleagues to share current research and practice and to debate relevant policy and pedagogic issues. Our conference is also a vibrant event at which colleagues have an opportunity to network and socialise. It provides an opportunity for the host institution to organise a major annual conference that addresses the interests and creativity of MeCCSA’s community and also reflects the identity and expertise of the host university. MeCCSA’s Executive Committee remains closely associated in a supervisory and advisory capacity with the overall planning and delivery of the conference and of course retains overall responsibility for the Conference.

The Executive Committee of MeCCSA has developed a general set of guidelines for colleagues interested in proposing the organisation of such a conference. This call is the initial stage of the process whereby interested members are asked to express their interest in hosting future conferences. This expression of interest should be framed in a proposal sent to Professor Natalie Fenton, Chair of MeCCSA, ((n.fenton /at/ gold.ac.uk)), copied to Professor Agnes Gulyas, Chair of MeCCSA Activities Sub-Committee, ((_agnes.gulyas /at/ canterbury.ac.uk) <mailto:(agnes.gulyas /at/ canterbury.ac.uk)>_). Any queries prior to submission should be sent to Agnes Gulyas.

The proposal should include the general details outlined in the guidelines on the MeCCSA website at: http://www.meccsa.org.uk/conference/meccsa-conference-proposal-guidelines/

_Deadline for proposals is 8^th December 2017_. All proposals will be considered at the MeCCSA Executive Committee meeting after the deadline. We are also keen to plan for subsequent conferences and therefore happy to consider proposals for subsequent years.
