What kind of session are you submitting?👇 ^*

We have slots available for 90 mins or 2 hr sessions.

Longer sessions are more suited to depth - e.g. developing particular organising skills or especially thorny topics, where more time is given for experiential aspects.

Shorter sessions are more suited to width - where you engage with a general topic.

You can also propose a shorter session, and we'll pair you up with others.

Who is your session for? 👋 ^*

Who do you want to come to your session?

We are looking for a range of sessions, well-pitched to different levels of organising experience & skills.

We especially welcome sessions for more experienced organisers to refine & test their abilities. As well as those that are open to all.

How will you support participants to tackle this problem? 💭 ^*

We encourage forms of learning that go beyond lectures and round-table discussions.

Even if you are still working out the details, give us some impression here of the techniques that you might use.

This could look like people:

- Sharing & reflecting on their experiences.

- Imagining or simulating a new experience.

- Making something - piece of writing, a piece of art, etc.

- Investigating or researching a problem.

- Delving into a problem to gain insights & knowledge.

We are happy to help you figure this out! And can support organisers with session design.

What support do you need from us? ❤️

This might relate to access needs you'd like to flag or other requests (e.g. childcare, language support/BSL) to enable you to deliver an in-person workshop.

We will share further information in due course with session organisers about venue accessibility & what support is available.

We'll need some info from you... ^*

If accepted, we'll need the following for the programme by the end of April.

- Bios for all involved
- Photos of presenters
- A short session description
- Your social media handles (if any)

Sure, no problem!

I can't do that

Important to note: ^*

🫂 Attendance:
We ask session givers to attend the full conference where possible, and discourage parachuting in and out again just for your session.

🎟️Tickets:
We ask all attendees to purchase a ticket (including session givers). We honour the labour & time that goes into giving a session, and NOC is financially dependent on ticket sales.

We will do our best to subsidise your attendance if you otherwise wouldn’t be able to attend, but we expect you to ask your organisation to cover it first, if possible.

Understood!
