Abstract submission
To present at our conference, students have to submit a short abstract (no more than 250 words) about their final year projects before the abstract submission deadline. All submitted abstracts will be reviewed by teams led by faculty members from the 7 universities. This is not only for confirmation of presentation status, but also to provide some professional feedbacks that we hope would help to improve your project. Students are welcome to submit an abstract without results (see below for details), and you also have an option to choose from presenting a poster or an oral presentation in the breakout sessions.
Topics of Interest
We welcome paper submissions that explore various aspects of religious studies. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the anthropology of religion, cultural anthropology of religion, economics of religion, geography of religion, history of religion, and literary approaches to religious texts. These categories aim to foster a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted nature of religion and its impact on societies around the world. We encourage innovative and interdisciplinary approaches that push the boundaries of traditional religious studies.
