Call for Abstract Submissions


Deadline (no more than 2,000 words) - 01 February 2016
http://www.interdisciplinaryconference.org/

 

With its motto "get connected to tourism network with great scholars and debates", this conference aims to emphasize the interdisciplinary nature of tourism, hospitality and leisure research. The conference attracts submissions in two categories: First, it encourages those faculty members and/or graduate students studying in other fields/disciplines, but have research interests on tourism, hospitality and leisure. This category welcomes the submission of papers with single or multiple authors. Second, for those contributors with a background in tourism, hospitality or leisure, the paper should be written by at least two multiple authors and each author should represent a different discipline.

All accepted extended abstracts (max 2000 words) are included in the proceedings that will be distributed in both printed and electronic forms upon your arrival at the registration desk.. In a further stage, a selected list of papers (max 5000 words) will be considered for publication as a chapter in a book form due by international publishers. This year we have 6 books to be published by CABI, Routledge, Emerald, and Cambridge Scholars.The proceedings will have an ISSN number. All papers will go through the blind review process to nominate the best paper award.
