ACDI's Annual Early Career Researcher Conference will take place online from 5 – 7 October 2020. This year the theme of the conference is  “What does climate change mean for development in Africa?”

Keen to get your research out there? Then submit your abstract! We are calling all Masters and PhD students, recent graduates and Postdocs to submit abstracts for virtual presentations. This year we are also accepting abstracts that tell a story about how COVID-19 affected your research plans.

Since we are online this year, we are also able to accept abstracts from across the ARUA-CD!  Students, graduates and Postdocs from across South Africa, Ghana and Kenya are welcome to submit an abstract and ‘attend’ this virtual event. 

Closing date for abstract submissions is the 7th August 2020.

Further details on the event – including the international keynote speakers – will be announced soon.
