Our Workshop will take place at one of Münster’s beautiful historical sites: The Heereman’sche Hof, a conference venue of the University of Münster’s Professional School. Detailed location information can be found below.

Here are some general guidelines on how the workshop will be organized:

• Panel Structure: Each panelist will have 15-20 minutes for their presentation, followed by a 20-minute discussion period. This will include feedback from a designated discussant and questions from the audience.
• Presentation Guidelines: Presenters may use slides, although they are not mandatory. If you do choose to use slides, technical equipment will be available at the venue, so there is no need to bring your own laptop.
• Document Management: If you have already uploaded the latest version of your paper and slides to our shared Dropbox, we will aim to have all documents ready on the provided laptop. However, we recommend bringing a backup of your materials on a USB device in case of any technical issues or last-minute changes.
• Access to Submissions: If you'd like to view the papers submitted by other participants, you can access all workshop submissions via our shared Dropbox. We look forward to insightful presentations and dynamic discussions!
