Proposed sessions below may be joined by submitting an abstract to the organizer or following the individual contact instructions. Once filled, these sessions must be submitted to the 2025 Annual Meeting CFP by the organizer or chair. If the organizer submits your abstract with their session, please do not submit your abstract as an individual paper proposal. If the organizer does not submit your abstract to their session, please still submit to the Annual Meeting CFP as part of another session or individual paper proposal.
Submit to the Call for Co-Panelists form here to assemble your own proposed session. Once you’ve found your co-panelists, you must submit the session to the 2025 Annual Meeting CFP. Organizers are responsible for remaining in contact with interested panelists as well as with the ASA Secretariat.
If you have questions, please email the ASA Secretariat at members@africanstudies.org.
