General Information

With this call for papers, we invite researchers in the field of family sciences (e. g. sociology, political science, economics, psychology, education) to actively participate in one of the sessions by presenting a paper during the symposium at the 5th European Congress of Family Science.

We accept abstracts in German or English (no more than 4.500 characters, spaces excluded). The presentation may be given in German or English as there will be simultaneous interpretation during the entire congress. Please plan for a 20-minute presentation followed by a 10-minute closing discussion. Following the congress, we plan a book publication. You may contribute with your written paper, in both German or English language.

Please submit your abstract directly on the congress website www.familyscience.eu until 30. April 2017.
