Paper Upload

Due to technical limitations with the current EUSAAP website, conference papers will be collected via the conference Google drive.

In addition, conference presentations should be uploaded to the Google drive to prevent and minimise potential technical issues with screensharing, presentations disappearing, etc (link below). The Google Drive organisation is laid out below.

Please check the programme below to find your session and stream. Then go into the Google drive and navigate to the respective session under Final Papers, and upload your final paper there. Repeat this process with your presentation under the ‘PowerPoint Presentations’ folder.

Please only upload word (.docx) or pdf documents.

Please check that you are uploading the correct file. Whilst every effort is made, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to switch an incorrectly uploaded file with a revised version.

Please name the file as follows: LastName_FirstName_Title of paper.docx

Hotel Accommodation for Conference & Postgraduate Workshop Participants

The designated conference hotel is Ibis Bangkok Siam 927 Rama 1 Road, Wangmai, Pathumwan, Bangkok 10330, Thailand (near Chulalongkorn University, Pathumwan Princess Hotel and the National Stadium) which will be used for accommodation for most conference presenters.

Please note that we will be covering costs for two nights accommodation and breakfast only for paper givers not living within commuting distance of the venue. We will NOT be able to cover any additional printing, room service, local transport, etc. charges. Please ensure that you will cover them upon check-out. Rooms will be booked for arrival on Wednesday, 28 June, and departure on Friday, 30 June 2023. Please note that only these nights can be covered. It will not be possible for the organisers to pay for any other nights.

For papers that are co-authored and/or several authors attending the conference, only one set of costs will be covered. For example, if the paper presentation is shared between two authors, we will only be able to cover the costs of one person.

Unless arranged otherwise in writing with the conference organisers, a single room is booked for conference presenters. The single rooms cannot be used by two people. Postgraduate workshop participants will be allocated twin rooms (same-sex only). Any additional guests staying at the hotel must be registered and pay the costs at check-in. If any additional nights have been booked at your cost (and confirmed in writing by the conference organisers), these must be paid for at check-in.

As you surely understand, the preparations for the conference have progressed and the EUSAAP had to make commitments to the hotel and other suppliers. If you have to withdraw from the conference now, you will be required to pay three nights of hotel accommodation. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation

Withdrawals & Transfers

As you can appreciate, conference organisers must make arrangements and financial commitments to suppliers to organise the event. Should participants withdraw, the below charges will apply to support conference-related expenditures.

Registration Fees

The conference and postgraduate workshop events are planned as mainly in-person events. We are monitoring the ongoing pandemic, however, at this stage, it is not planned to offer a virtual component.

EUSAAP is working hard to keep registration fees affordable. Fees include catering during the conference and a conference dinner. Please choose your registration type carefully (academic or student) during the registration process.

Please understand that all registration fees are non-refundable. Registration fees are payable at registration and charged via PayPal. Unfortunately EUSAAP cannot accept bank transfers, cheques or cash as currency conversion and/or banking fees often outweigh the registration fees.

Conference participants will receive access to all full papers submitted to the conference. You are also encouraged to submit your paper for publication to the Asia Europe Journal of European Studies or the Australia and New Zealand Journal of European Studies.
