or more authors, lasting a total of 30 minutes (20 minutes for presentation
and 10 minutes for discussion). Please note that the time limit will be
strictly adhered to.

Posters: Poster sessions are for displaying research that offers the
opportunity for individualised, informal discussion of the research. Posters
are especially effective for presenting work-in-progress, fieldwork and
results of empirical research if data can be presented visually (e.g. charts,
graphs, tables). A block of time will be designated when presenters are
available to discuss their posters. Posters should be in the size of DIN A1 or

presentations.
