This year's conference theme is: Connecting Time Use Research with Public Policies, Organizations and Society. Time-use research has the potential to inform key time use policies such as education schedules, mobility, equality policies, amongst many others. The 2021 IATUR conference wants to explore the connection between research, policy-making and societal changes. To that end, plenary sessions will include discussions of research results that have already or can potentially impact society and both the receptions and visits have been designed to allow for knowledge exchange between researchers attending the conference and policy-makers and public servants that execute public policy on a day-to-day basis.
The call for papers for the conference is open and admits abstracts related to time use research. Abstracts can be submitted here until 18/06/2021.
Registration is also open for offline participation here. Discount for early bird registration is available until 01/07/2021. On June, we will open the possibility to register as an online participant. All sessions, but the visits on-site, will be streamed live and participants will be able to recover the recordings if they cannot attend live.
