🌍Technical Dialogues
The Technical Dialogues would be aligned with the themes of Plenary Dialogues. 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. Technical Session shall be held concurrently post-lunch and the registered delegates will be free to attend the sessions of their choice. Each session shall be chaired by a subject matter specialist who will moderate the presentation of papers to be followed by dialogues with participants. Each session shall have 120 minutes with half an hour tea break.
GDCCA & DRR shall be open to accept original research papers and presentations on any other issue related to the themes. Organizers would also be open to suggestions for additional Technical Sessions if a minimum number of 6 papers are contributed by any institution or a group of like-minded researchers for presentation in the session.
