We are delighted to open our call for expressions of interest for an institution to host the RAISE Annual Conference in September 2023.
This flagship event grows year on year, bringing together students, practitioners and academics to share practice, research findings and network from across the world. We are seeking a venue and academic institution to host our largest event in our annual cycle to bring the network together from 6th-7th September 2023.
The RAISE Committee are seeking a location and venue which would foster fantastic networking, have good travel links, plenty affordable accommodation available and great amenities. The lead contact will be welcomed onto the RAISE Committee as Conference Coordinator from September 2022 – October 2023 and will be fully supported by the wider committee in the process of organising and promoting the event. We intend this event to be predominantly in person but we welcome applications to include how there may be blended/digital options.
If interested, please may colleagues apply by completing this online form with the below details by 21 March 2022:
