TECHNICAL SESSIONS

The Technical Sessions would be aligned with three key themes of the Congress - Technology, Finance and Capacity. Researchers, policy makers and practitioners would present their papers in these sessions on a wide range of issues related to each of these key themes; however the Congress would be open to accept original research papers and presentations on any other issue related to the themes. Organisers would also be open to suggestions for organising additional Technical Sessions if a minimum number of 6 papers are accepted for the session.
