Deadline Extended – Student Showcase: Call for Posters!
The 2021 conference will feature a student showcase highlighting completed and in progress research by Georgia college students, including graduate students, and Atlanta-area high school students (grades 9-12). The student showcase will span two days. The Thursday, September 23 showcase will take place from 11:30am – 1:30pm and will be in person on Agnes Scott College’s campus. Presenters will be assigned to a 30 to 45-minute session when they will share their research with conference participants. On Friday, September 24, 2021 from 12-1pm, the conference will stream virtual/digital presentations from students who did not participate in the Thursday in-person session. However, ALL students will have the opportunity to create a virtual presentation of their research, which will be made available to the attendees via the conference website. **Due to the ongoing global pandemic, the Thursday in-person showcase and the entire conference may take place in a virtual format. Participants will be notified of the confirmed format by August 23, 2021.**
We invite submissions for individual and group student poster sessions that relate to climate justice, climate change, sustainability, grassroots climate activism, health and the environment, and/or other related themes. Research from and/or addressing women and/or other marginalized communities is strongly encouraged.
*All participants and faculty or staff supporting a participating student will have their conference registration fee waived.*
