We are delighted to open our call for expressions of interest for an institution to host the RAISE Annual Conference in September 2024!
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 4th-5th September 2024.
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 annual conference is the main income strand for the RAISE association so we are looking to attract participant numbers of over 300, and to generate a surplus for the association of at least £20k.
The lead contact will be welcomed onto the RAISE Committee as Conference Co-ordinator from September 2023 to October 2024 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 require applications to include how we can include blended/digital options.
If you would like your institution to be considered as host, please fill out this application form by 20th March 2023
All applications will be consider by the RAISE Committee w/c 3rd April 2023.
Please do feel free to get in touch for further discussion ahead of a submission: raise@newcastle.ac.uk
