Call for Abstract
The Association for International Agricultural and Extension Education (AIAEE) Scholarly Activities Committee is requesting proposals for refereed abstracts to be presented at the 39th Annual Conference. The conference theme is “Technology, Pluralism and Inclusiveness in Agriculture, Food, and Environment;” however, all submissions will be given full consideration. Research for the conference can be conducted anywhere across the globe, but we encourage submissions to demonstrate global relevance for agricultural and Extension education, capacity building, communications, leadership, and international development. The purpose of abstracts is to share:
- Research - reporting on the systematic investigation into and study of materials and sources to establish facts and reach new conclusions.
- Application - documenting a practical and/or field experience of applied extension education and/or agricultural education.
- Theoretical/ Philosophical - proposition to generate new knowledge concerned with or involving the theory of a subject or area of study rather than its practical application.
- Innovative models of educational programming - present a concept or idea that reflects innovative educational approaches for AIAEE-relevant audiences.

- Accepted proposals require one author who is a current member to be registered for the conference by February 1, 2023.
