Poster Presentation Submission Portal

The AESS 2021 Low-Carbon Virtual Conference welcomes ESS-related poster proposals in the interdisciplinary sciences, social sciences, natural resource management, natural sciences, environmental humanities, sustainability, education, activism, and more. To reflect our commitment to scholar and practitioner development and mentorship, we welcome presentations at all stages, from proposal to implementation to publication. This year AESS is soliciting proposals in six areas of emphasis to facilitate member connections and collaboration, live networking events and workshops. Toward this end, we will also host an associated Student Summit to bring students together to support their shared interests in ESS, discuss their work, and vision for the future. Each area of emphasis connects with broader commitments of AESS to social, environmental, and racial justice. Proposals beyond these areas are welcome. All relevant topics for presentations and panels will be considered. 

Thank you for your interest in AESS 2021. Poster presentations will be accepted on a rolling basis through May 2021.

Poster presentations are designed for the presentation of research or pedagogical or program innovations in a less formal and more interactive way than a formal panel. Effective posters focus on the main points of the research (the question, key findings, basic methodology); the main value of the session is the dialog between presenter and session attendees. In the virtual setting, there will be opportunities for attendees to interact with presenters during designated time periods.

Complete details about each proposal submission requirement can be reviewed at aessconference.org/proposals.


Poster sessions will be scheduled Monday, June 28 - Thursday, July 1, 2021.
