Call for abstracts
We would like to inform you that the deadline for submitting abstracts for the ELE conference, originally scheduled for the 15th of January 2023, has been extended to the 2nd of February. We would like to extend a thank you to everyone who has submitted their abstracts so far!
You are welcome to present your research at the conference either in the form of a paper presentation or as a symposium. Each person can contribute up to two presentations. Language of presentation can be English or any of the Scandinavian languages. Please note that all proposals should be in Word format. For further requirements, please see below:

Symposia
90 minutes in total. Symposia build on a specific theme and are organised by individuals who recruit speakers to present papers. In addition, the session often includes one or more invited discussants.

Symposia are typically organised as follows: (1) Introduction, (2) three or four individual presentations, (3) discussion. The symposium organiser will be the chair of the symposium unless other information is provided in the proposal. The congress organisers decide how many symposia are feasible at the congress.

- An introductory abstract of 300 words describing the entire symposium
