Transport Geography Research Group
The Transport Geography Research Group would like to invite you to submit session proposals for sponsorship for the 2025 RGS-IBG Annual International Conference.
The conference will take place at the University of Birmingham from 26th- 29th August 2025 and will be chaired by Professor Patricia Noxolo (University of Birmingham, UK). We would particularly encourage sessions around the conference theme, but sessions relating to any aspect of Transport Geography will be considered.
If you would like to have your session sponsored by TGRG, please submit your session proposal to TGRG Secretary Karen Lucas (karen.lucas@manchester.ac.uk) and TGRG Chair Helena Titheridge (h.titheridge@ucl.ac.uk) by 10 February 2025.
Please include the following in your session proposal:
- Session title
- Names, affiliations and email addresses of the session convenors (we advise two)
- Session delivery (either in-person or virtual)
- Session format (e.g. papers, panel, discussion, workshop, or something else)
- Number of required timeslots (one or two)
- A session abstract (about 200-300 words)
- Brief description of the size and type of audience you expect your session to attract
- Up to five keywords
We will confirm session sponsorship by 20 February 2025. You must inform us by 27 February 2025 of any changes to your session, including withdrawal or a reduction in the number of timeslots you will use.
Requests for additional timeslots (up to a maximum of two) must also be submitted by 27 February 2025. We aim to respond to any such requests within five days.
You have until 7th March 2025 to issue your Call for Papers (you can do this now and sooner is usually better), to choose your presenters and to submit your full session proposal in accordance with the procedure given.
