Submission of Abstracts

Disclaimer

The ICA-AP Research Committee does not endorse or necessarily agree with the views of authors of papers and presentations that are approved for presentation at this conference. Please note that the peer review process is limited to abstracts only, so we cannot guarantee the scholarly rigour of full papers based on conference presentations. The ICA-AP does not publish full papers on the conference website nor does it endorse their publication elsewhere. The conference website may provide links to draft papers that the authors have already uploaded to SSRN or similar open-access academic working paper repositories, solely to encourage the dissemination of higher quality academic research on co-operatives. These links may be added or removed at the discretion of the conference committee and also upon receiving advise from the ICA-AP research committee.

We welcome abstract submissions from researchers, PhD and Masters Students involved in co-operative research.

The conference accepts submissions for either oral presentations (power point) or a poster presentation. Poster presentations are typically for less developed papers. An author is able to present multiple research studies, subject to approval of the scientific committee.
