Doing Autoethnography 2020: Call for Participation

Since the inaugural conference in 2011, participants have gathered to present their work, engage in vibrant discussion, and build relationships at Doing Autoethnography conferences. In 2020, the tradition continues.

In order to provide autoethnographers (of all experience levels) the opportunity to present their autoethnographic endeavors and encourage dialogue among scholars across a variety of disciplines, Doing Autoethnography 2020 invites submissions of papers, performances, and panels to be considered for presentation. Submissions might:

  • engage a variety of topics (e.g., gender, sexuality, race, health, education) autoethnographically or through related methods of narrative and/or performative writing,
  • address autoethnography on theoretical or methodological levels,
  • champion aspects of autoethnography or autoethnography in general, and/or
  • interrogate practices in autoethnographic methods.

Creative and innovative approaches are encouraged. All submissions should take the form of extended abstracts (not to exceed 750 words). Email your abstract to submissions@doingautoethnography.org to be considered for presentation at Doing Autoethnography 2020. The deadline for submission is May 31, 2019.

Doing Autoethnography 2020 will be held January 2 through January 5, 2020 at the Dolphin Beach Resort in St. Pete Beach, Florida, USA. Information on registration and hotel accommodations will be released soon at doingautoethnography.org.

Please direct all inquiries to Derek Bolen at derek.bolen@doingautoethnography.org.
