Workshop format
Information for applicants
The format of the workshops at NORDIWA 2025 will basically be the same as in Gothenburg 2023. A workshop diEers from the presentation sessions at the conference, where the normal set-up is a certain number of presentations (full or short), and less time for discussions.
The length of a workshop is 80 minutes.
A workshop is a forum where a specific topic is presented and discussed in a smaller audience consisting of experts, practitioners and others, and where there is more room for knowledge-sharing and discussions. The presentations in a workshop are short, to allocate more time for discussions.
Participants are normally organized in smaller groups around the table.
A workshop should consist of presentations from diEerent Nordic countries, to make it relevant for a Nordic audience.
A workshop may be organized by the Programme Committee at NORDIWA or being mandated by the Programme Committee. Authors of submitted abstracts may be asked to present and participate in a workshop, where this will fit better into the programme of the conference.
