AfricaCWIC 2024: Call for Posters
SUBMIT YOUR POSTER
We invite poster submissions for the Second ACM Celebration of Women in Computing in Africa (AfricaCWIC 2024) to be held at USIU-Africa in Nairobi, Kenya on 20th September 2024.
Attendance will be both in-person and online. If you wish to submit a poster but are unable to travel, arrangements will be made for you to present your poster virtually.
Posters will be selected on the basis of submitted abstracts. An abstract should be a PDF not exceeding two single-spaced pages (including references) using 12-point Times New Roman font. Abstracts must be submitted by Monday, 12 August 2024 11:59 AoE via the Web submissions system. Do not email submissions.
Posters will be selected on the following basis:
- Submissions must describe new, interesting work, not previously presented.
- Submissions should represent early work that has not yet been published in a refereed conference or journal.
- Student submissions meeting the above criteria will be given preference; however, abstracts from non-students are also welcome.
Provide the following information in your PDF file:
- Poster title
- Author names, affiliations, and email addresses
- Which authors, if any, are students
If your submission is accepted, guidelines will be provided to you on how to format your poster. Posters will primarily be presented in person. Those who wish to present posters online will be asked to submit a five-minute video presentation of their poster. Submissions must be in English and fit the conference theme.
Submissions must comply with the ACM Policy on Plagiarism, Misrepresentation, and Falsification.
Submissions can have multiple authors, at least one of whom must be female. At least one author of each accepted poster is expected to attend the event and present the poster. Authors will be notified of acceptance or rejection via email by Wednesday, 21 August 2024. Send any questions about the poster session to africacwic-reg@acm.org.
