Information for Submitters

Please read the information below before you submit the paper:

We invite two types of papers to be submitted:

1) papers based on academic research, which may be either conceptual or empirical:

Conceptual papers should develop strong arguments and new theoretical perspectives on issues related to the KMAP conference themes (i.e. a comprehensive review, support or question of the existing literature to develop a new theoretical perspective).

Empirical papers should instead have a short and focused literature review to develop the research hypotheses, explain the methodology, present the data and their analysis, draw appropriate conclusions and discuss the theoretical and practical implications of the findings.

2) papers based on policy practices or practitioner's reflections and experiences:

These papers should contain a brief narrative section describing the policy or practice presented and explaining its purpose and objective. The presentation section should elaborate on the different issues involved in the implementation of the innovation in question and/or present a case study. The conclusion should contain recommended solutions and/or the outcomes of the study in question.
