- The criteria are: a) compliance with the rules (above); b) clarity, coherence, and academic rigor.
- The list of approved panels will be published on the congress website by November 11, 2024.
The coordinator of an approved panel is responsible for:
- During the period for evaluating paper proposals [from January 7 to 24, 2025], they must review all proposals submitted to their panel through the event platform, ensuring that these meet the Call for Papers requirements.
- When selecting proposals, coordinators must ensure that a panel can have 1 or 2 working sessions, with each session having a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 5 presentations. If the panel receives many proposals, a third session can be added, with a maximum of 15 presentations per panel.
- The evaluation process is conducted online, and the review is dynamic. Coordinators must assess proposals on the platform in the review area. Once a proposal is evaluated, it is automatically approved or rejected, and the authors are notified.
- After completing this review process, coordinators should notify the secretariat, via email at apa2025.apantropologia@gmail.com, of any proposals not suitable for their panel but that are of sufficient quality to be considered for another panel.
- Based on the list of confirmed authors, the coordinator should organize the panel's schedule, including the order of presentations, time distribution (according to the general congress guidelines), and the appointment of moderators (if applicable). Coordinators should also ask authors to specify the audiovisual and IT equipment they will need for their presentations.
