  What makes a proposal and conference contribution innovative and engaging? Here are some thoughts:

  • It is inspirational and thought-provoking – proposals are proved to be most interesting through concrete experiences or case studies, showing how easily they can be replicated by attendees in their own context.
  • It is topical and adaptable – to be broadly useful, proposals should fit with a wide range of learning programmes and be useful across sectors.
  • It is interactive – well-received presentations/sessions have deep learning objectives wrapped in an engaging and inviting package to encourage fellow participants to explore the topic. 

  In the submission form, you will be able to provide detailed information in the sections "synopsis" and "participant benefits". Evaluators and participants will rely on these details, so please be descriptive and outline:

  • How your proposal is relevant to the event themes, audience and purpose
  • How it will stimulate thinking and prompt discussion and debate
  • The challenge/problem it addresses and why this proves to be an innovative approach, method or solution
  • The outcomes from attending for your audience; information which will be most useful for participants in their working environments

  Should your proposal be accepted, the programme committee may provide guidelines and recommendations in respect to your proposal and the format in which it might be included in the agenda, in an effort to ensure sessions will be as interactive and practical as possible. Should you have a preferred OEB25 format or want to propose a new format, you will be able to outline that in the submission form.
