The organising committee of the Congress is pleased to announce a call for sections (panels) for the 4th International Congress of Belarusian Studies. The Congress will take place on 3-5 October 2014 in Kaunas, Lithuania. Sections (panels) are intended to be sites for discussion of particular research problems or presentation of results of scholarly activity within certain disciplines or research fields. The organising committee does not set any restrictions regarding the discipline or topic of the panel, and thus suggests that academic and research communities articulate their own priorities and interests. Sections (panels) can be disciplinary, thematic or focus on particular narrow problems. We also accept applications for sections that will discuss important social and political issues, as well as round tables, workshops, presentations, etc. The formation of sections and panels through an open call for proposals allows the Congress to accommodate the needs and expectations of the academic and expert community. The organising committee calls upon research institutions and communities as well as academic leaders to participate in the design of thematic priorities of the Fourth Congress. Applications can be made by individuals, groups or institutions. To apply, please fill in the online form https://palityka.wufoo.eu/forms/call-for-panels-2014 The application deadline is 20 March 2014.
