ABOUT the technical program

The technical program is structured into topic streams that address broad aspects of impact assessment theory and practice. Sessions have been allocated to one of the conference themes or to an IAIA Section topic.

As indicated, some sessions have been proposed by, and will be chaired by, members of the IAIA Sections and form part of the ongoing activities of the Sections.

Theme forums
Theme forums bring together special speakers to open IAIA conference discussions.
The goal is to present a well-balanced mix of innovative and high-quality sessions. Theme forums are intended to be integrative in nature, i.e., to deal with cross-cutting issues relevant to the many specialties of impact assessment; to engage with the conference theme; to be relevant to our international audience; and to be innovative in format.
The theme forums listed in the preliminary program are tentative. The final selection of theme forums will be made and confirmed in the final program following further planning by potential theme forum conveners.
