Young African researchers are especially encouraged to submit articles. One of the objectives of the AEC series is to provide young African researchers, especially women, with the opportunity to share their work with a broader audience and to expand their networks.
All papers will be blind peer-reviewed by the co-organizing institutions. Papers accepted for presentation shall be original quality work.
A distinguished panel will assess the papers presented and award a prize to the young author whose paper is deemed the best conference paper. The winner will be announced at the closing ceremony.
