The body of the paper proposal for empirical research should consist of three sections. The first section which presents the relevant literature review, objective, main research question and contribution of the proposal. The second section presents the methodology. The third presents the potential practical contributions, the results if they are available, the limits of the study as well as the lines of thought for future research. References, tables, and figures will be presented at the end of the document.

The paper proposal of a theoretical/conceptual nature should include a review of relevant literature and a clear demonstration of its contribution to existing literature. Just like empirical propositions, references, tables, and figures should be presented at the end of the article.

​

The proposals for round tables or panels aim to bring together recognized experts in their field, whether they are researchers, managers, activists, members of NGOs or political representatives, around an important theme relevant to the field of CSR/SRO.

If accepted, the speakers, in addition to sharing their knowledge, analyzes and experiences, will be invited to debate and answer questions from the audience.

​

The round table proposal, summarized in a maximum of 3 pages, includes three sections. The first presents the title, objective, and relevance of this round table; as well as an example of the questions around which the participants will debate. The second section presents the participants (they must have previously indicated their agreement), their contact details as well as the relevance of each participant for the round table – here we will make sure to specify their expertise on the subject. Finally, the third section presents the expected course of the round table, considering that its duration, which will be 90 minutes, of which 30 minutes must be devoted to discussions with the audience.
