Conference Proposals 2019

UPDATE: 1 July 2019 - Thank you to everyone who submitted a proposal for NAWE 2019. We received an overwhelming number of high quality submissions, and will be sending out notifications in the first week of July. 

The NAWE Conference welcomes presentations and workshop proposals from creative writing tutors working in schools, colleges, community settings and in higher education at any level.

We’re open to suggestions in terms of presentation format. We’re interested in practice-based presentations with a preference for proposals that actively engage delegates and give them new insights into the practice of teaching and writing.  

Your proposal might be a presentation, workshop or shared panel, for any length from 30 mins – 90 mins.  Shorter presentations may be grouped according to focus by the conference organisers.

Proposals should include:

a brief outline (100 words), exactly as you would wish it to appear in the programme

a short biography for all presenters (50 words each)

details of any technical requirements (all rooms will be equipped with AV/Powerpoint/laptops/etc)

Submissions via Submittable (below), by 1 May 2019.

The Conference runs from Friday lunchtime through to Sunday midday, with special events on both evenings. All presenters need to register as delegates but benefit from a significant discount.
