Paper Submission

ABSTRACT SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

You are invited to send your abstract to the 8th International Conference of Contemporary Affairs on Architecture and Urbanism which will be held online on 8-9 May 2025 at Alanya University. At first, participants should send their abstracts (in .doc or .docx file format). All abstracts submitted to the conference undergo a blind review process by two anonymous reviewers. The reviewers are chosen from the conference’s scientific review board. Typically, the field coordinators will seek reviewers’ feedback before considering your submission for acceptance. In that case, the field coordinator will wait until he/she receives all reviewer comments on your submission. The field coordinator will then e-mail you directly with a decision.
