Call for Papers:

Abstracts should be no longer than 250 words, written in English or in some Sami language (accompanied by a simple English translation so that the experts in the scientific committee are able to assess your abstract), and emailed to: aktasneumu.se. Send your abstract together with information on how you want to be contacted in case your presentation is accepted to the conference. Also, inform us under which main theme you want to place your paper/presentation. You are welcome to send us several abstracts in case you are doing multidisciplinary research.
