IAMCR 2025 CFP
The call for papers for the 2025 conference is now available. Deadline 7th February. We look forward to your submissions, and to seeing you in Singapore in July.
Call for peer reviewers
Every year, we rely on volunteer members to review submissions for the conference. Each submission is reviewed by at least two members, so the more volunteers the better. Please fill out this form to volunteer today. The MAR topics are listed on the form. Please tick one of more areas of expertise for reviewing.
MAR in Christchurch 2024
The IAMCR24 conference in Christchurch was the first face-to-face only conference for MAR. Before 2024, the Working Group has met online and for some, face-to-face and online for the 2023 conference.
We received 73 Submissions. There were limitations set by the venue capacity in Christchurch which resulted in limitations on the number of papers that could be accepted. There are 23 papers presented at the 2024 conference, organized around five main sessions. The full MAR report presented at Christchurch can be accessed here.
Thank you for your support of the MAR Working Group.
Co-chairs Nacho Gallego, Spain and Mia Lindgren, Australia
