The Call for Special Session proposals is now closed, a record number of 80 proposals have been received and the selection results will be announced in April.
Reflecting and emphasizing the theme of IAC 2019 “Space: The Power of the Past, the Promise of the Future”, this year’s congress will see again the exciting and fresh format: Special Sessions.
The Special Sessions are held as part of the Technical Programme and are designed to be innovative, interactive, instructive and inclusive with the main objective to enhance knowledge transfer between experts and participants, as well as to maximize group interaction and promote collaborative learning.
The Special Sessions will consist of in-depth workshops, best practice showcases and demonstrations, discussions and debates, expert presentations and networking sessions. The new stimulating formats will offer more interactive and hands-on experiences, and will bring you a powerful and engaging learning experience.
