The position paper may be a 1 -4 >page abstract/short paper, in academic or non-academic style, detailing >a position and/or insight regarding the subject of discussions. >Participants will present their positions during the first part of the >discussion with dialogue exchange to follow.

A short period >will be allotted to allow participants to review statements. > >Students, independent scholars, and non-geographers are encouraged to submit >papers/positions.
