APPAM’s 45th Annual Fall Research Conference will take place Thursday, November 9 through Saturday, November 11 at the Hyatt Regency Atlanta in Atlanta, GA. This year's conference theme will be Policy that Matters: Making Public Services Work for All.
Good policy improves lives. But it’s sometimes easy to miss how policy analysis makes a difference. The 2023 APPAM Fall Research Conference centers our attention on the impact of policy on the daily, lived experience of the public. The theme Policy that Matters: Making Public Services Work for All, encourages us to consciously and explicitly consider how social science theories and empirical research about policy design and implementation has a direct and practical effect on the lives of people.
The following submission types will be solicited in the conference’s 15 policy areas:
Abstracts for individual papers and posters should be between 100 and 500 words. If a panel of papers is proposed there should be a summary of each paper plus an overarching description of the panel and its importance. Descriptions for roundtables should be between 100 and 500 words, plus a listing of participants and a summary of their contributions.
All submissions must be completed no later than Wednesday, April 12, 2023 by 11:59 PM US Pacific Time.
Notifications will be sent by late-July 2023.
