Full Paper Submissions:
All full papers must be uploaded in MS Word format via the event’s web-based system. Click HERE to access the system.
Full papers are NOT REQUIRED from authors who don’t require publication of their work in the conference’s online proceedings or if their papers have already been published elsewhere. In this case, an abstract-only submission is sufficient.
Authors are advised to download the conference’s official template to ensure that their papers meet the event’s formatting requirements.
Full papers (including all tables, figures, and appendices) must not exceed 15 pages long. A fee of USD35 per page will be imposed for every additional page beyond this limit. A separate invoice will be issued to the author if this limit has been exceeded.
Presenters will be notified via email if their papers have been accepted. Acceptance notifications will normally come with suggestions and remarks from a reviewer. IF a presenter wishes to modify the paper based on these comments, he or she must upload the amended version as a camera-ready paper via the online system.
Authors are advised to NOT submit their full papers if they don’t plan to seek publication in the proceedings or if the work had already been published elsewhere. In this case, an abstract-only submission will be sufficient.

Presentations:
The event offers two modes of presentations that authors can choose from i.e. Oral and Poster.
- Oral Presentations
In this category, presenters are be given 15-20 minutes to present their work orally. An additional 5-10 minutes will then be added for Q&A. Unless given permission by the event committee, all presentations must be conducted in English.
Each session will be moderated by a session chair who will be appointed from among the conference participants prior to the event.
For the benefit of the audience, the presentation should at least cover the following areas:
- The objective/purpose/rationale of the study
- Background/overview of the topic
- Theoretical framework
- Research design and methodology
- Overview of findings and results
- Conclusion/Discussion
Please be prepared with enough material to fill the time allocated to you. The use of visual aids (e.g. MS Powerpoint or Prezi) is compulsory.
Please take some time to read our PRESENTATION TIPS & GUIDELINES page before preparing for your oral presentation.
- Poster Presentations
This event also accepts posters as an alternative to oral presentations.
A special viewing and Q&A session will be held for presenters who had opted to use posters. Authors are expected to be present during this session to answer questions or provide explanations to visitors during the session.
