OBJECTIVES

CONTEXT07 hosts a doctorial consortium where PhD students have the opportunity to present their ongoing work and have it assessed and discussed by leading scholars in different disciplines contributing to the research area of CONTEXT.

The objectives of the Doctoral Consortium are:

  1. to provide a setting for mutual feedback on participants' current research, and guidance on future research directions;
  2. to develop a supportive community of scholars and a spirit of collaborative research; and
  3. to contribute to the conference goals through interaction with other researchers and participation in other conference events.
Topics include but are not limited to the ones listed in the CFP of the main conference which is available here.
