The 16th research conference of the Nordic Network on Disability Research invites researchers, policy makers, activists and practitioners to Reykjavík, Iceland on 10-12 May 2023 to share scholarship and ideas, and to strengthen collaboration in the field of disability research within and beyond the Nordic countries.

The organising committee calls for contributions to the conference in the form of single presentations and sessions consisting of either 4-5 or 8-10 presentations. Presentations are expected to cover a wide range of topics related to the lives and experiences of people with disabilities in different fields of societies around the world. This includes but is not limited to aspects of social, political, economic and cultural participation in the present and past; policy and practice; and promotion and protection of the human rights of people with disabilities. Contributions are expected to have a common ground within the multidisciplinary field of disability studies and to stimulate conversations between participants by drawing on empirical, theoretical and policy and practice oriented approaches.

For the 16th research conference, the organising committee places specific emphasis on strenghtening dialogue and relations with Deaf studies and adjacent fields concerned with the lives of d/Deaf people around the world.

The abstract submission platform on nndr2023.is is now open and ready to receive abstracts for single presentations or entire sessions. If you wish to submit an abstract, please read carefully our guidelines for abstract submission. Deadline for abstract submission is 25 November 2022. Further inquiries may be directed at nndr2023@sena.is.

On behalf of the Nordic Network on Disability Research, we look forward to welcoming you to the conference in Reykjavík.

In case you wish to submit single presentation AND session abstracts

If you wish to submit a single presentation abstract as well as abstracts for an entire session, you need to register yourself as user for both submission systems. As the systems for single presentations and entire sessions are formally separate, you should register yourself to the systems using two different usernames. The e-mail address for both user registrations may be the same.

Please note:

Although we have made efforts to maximise accessibility of the abstract submission system, there may be instances where persons who wish to submit an abstract experience difficulties using the system. If this is the case for you, please contact us at NNDR2023@sena.is so that we can make arrangements for you to submit your abstract outside of the abstract submission system.
