The Practice Network Symposium aims to frame practice-led, 
practice-based, practice as research and research for creative practice 
through the lens of research impact as we run up to 2021 REF. We 
especially invite responses from practitioners engaged in any research 
related activities across the range of media represented by MeCCSA, 
whose practice presentations can respond to questions, themes and ideas 
that include, but are not limited to:

•	Progressing a decolonising agenda for media practice research 
examining the commitment to anti-racism and methods to support 
under-represented and under-resourced communities;
•	Sharing approaches to narrativising impact claims for creative practice;
•	Measuring meaningful impact in creative practice research;
•	Case studies of creative practice as participatory method; • 
Evaluations of cultural value and return on social investment;
•	Responses to the challenge of demonstrating impact in a metrics-driven 
H.E. environment;
•	Provocations and proposals that address the cultural value of creative 
practice research;
•	Strategies for addressing issues of diversity and inclusion, and 
articulating the impact of such strategies, in creative practice research.

Proposals may take the form of:

i.	Scholarly papers to be presented in the form of a 10-minute 
pre-recorded video for asynchronous delivery to delegates. ii.	Online 
media such as video essays, screenings and other forms of creative or 
critical content for asynchronous delivery to delegates.
iii.	Interactive and/or participatory experiences for either synchronous 
or asynchronous delivery to delegates.  iv.	Provocations or proposals 
for online participatory panel discussions and/or open space breakout 
discussion topics.

The symposium organisers will consider all online presentations of 
practice-based research, practice-led research, practice as research or 
research for creative practice work, from all manifestations of creative 
and media activity across the full range of interests represented by MeCCSA.

Non-traditional forms of presentation (for example, 
lecture-performances, videos, photo essays, installations, media 
artworks, short films, interactive websites, roundtable discussions 
etc.) are encouraged.

Papers presented at the symposium will be considered for a special issue 
of Media Practice and Education in 2021.

Please submit abstracts/proposals (300 words) for all presentations, 
papers, artworks or screenings, outlining their aim and form, along with
