Call for papers

The morning session each day will be devoted to plenary addresses by senior scholars and public officials. The afternoon sessions will be of composed of workshops with a selection of papers submitted in response to this call. The call was opened on 1 May 2009 and will close on 31 August 2009. Those submitting a proposal will be notified by 1 November 2009. They will be asked to confirm their participation and to submit the full paper no later than 1 June.

To submit, please go to our paper submission form below. You’ll need to fill in all the required items, otherwise the form will not be accepted. Consult the program here and mark which of the four days you think your paper fits best.

We are primarily looking for original research papers with new modeling, new statistical analysis, or new comparative case studies of the security implications of climate change. We will also consider review papers, but there will be a high premium on originality. If your work is already under consideration for publication, please let us know.

We aim to produce a special issue of a suitable academic journal and possibly an edited volume from the best contributions to the conference. However, acceptance of a paper for presentation to the conference does not commit you to have your paper considered for a joint publication. You will be free to take your paper wherever you like, but we hope to be able to offer an attractive publication venue.
