[Air-L] Submission deadline for AoIR2025 is Saturday, 1 March 2025

[AoIR Association Coordinator]

*This is a reminder that the deadline to make submissions for #AoIR2025 is
1 March 2025 BRT – a little over 24 hours away!* If you are unsure what
time this is where you are, please check here
<https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=AoIR2025+Submission+Deadline&iso=20250301T235959&p1=213>.


We’re very excited to be making two major innovations this year. This first
is that *we are opening space for other languages than English!* For the
first time ever, we will accept a limited number of proposals to be
presented in Portuguese or Spanish (and that will have simultaneous
translation to English). *These proposals must be submitted in English for
the review process. *

This is restricted to papers, panels, roundtables and fishbowls. As part of
the submission process, you will be asked if you would like to present in
Portuguese or Spanish. *If your proposal is a panel, roundtable or fishbowl
with multiple languages, you must choose only one language for the entire
group. The choice you make at this stage will be binding.* As there will be
fewer spots for these presentations--because of the need to provide
simultaneous translation--you may be accepted but asked to present in
English.

The second innovation is the introduction of a *tiered system for
conference registration fees.* The final fees will be announced in due
course, but we are striving to leave last year’s fees unchanged, while
offering seriously discounted rates for participants based in the Global
South. Without committing to a concrete number right now, the options we
are considering are around US$50 for early-bird members, which would bring
AoIR in line with similar conferences in Brazil. We mention this now to
encourage submissions from people who might be discouraged from even trying
to come to the conference based on previous years’ fees.

For this year’s conference we are excited to be continuing with our hybrid
options, while learning from the experience of Sheffield. To this end, we
shall be accepting proposals for papers to be presented remotely and we
will be live streaming a number of the sessions, allowing for remote
participation in the conference. We shall be limiting the number of remote
presentations to one or two per paper panel, and only for some of the
panels per session.

Finally, two of our core events will continue to run in both face-to-face
and online versions: the Doctoral Colloquium
<https://aoir.org/aoir2025/aoir2025subtypes/> and the Early Career
Researcher (ECR) event. Submissions
<https://aoir.org/aoir2025/aoir2025subtypes/> for both modes of the
Doctoral Colloquium are open; as with our other preconferences, calls for
participation in both modes of the ECR event will be distributed shortly
after conference acceptance notifications. We also plan to provide online
access for all AoIR members to our larger events (keynote, plenaries, and
Annual General Meeting).

*Submission to AoIR 2025: Ruptures*
The 2025 conference welcomes contributions that address the broad theme of
Ruptures <https://aoir.org/aoir2025/aoir2025cfp/>.

To re-familiarize yourself with the call for proposals and types of
submissions solicited, please see here:
https://aoir.org/aoir2025/aoir2025subtypes/

When submitting, please take the time to read the submission categories and
topics carefully; this helps us match your submission to a suitable
reviewer. To learn more about how submissions are reviewed, please see
here: https://aoir.org/sub_review_info_aoir/

*In the interest of diversity and collegiality, each conference participant
is limited to presenting a maximum of two papers (either as standalone
papers or as parts of a panel or one of each; fishbowls, experimental
sessions and roundtables are not counted against your maximum of two
presentations). You can be a co-author on additional papers, but you must
not be the scheduled presenter of these papers.*

Please email any questions about the submissions process to AoIRConfChair
