The conference's advisory council will review proposals. Selection will be based on
(a) fit of the session to the conference theme
(b) anticipated interest of the session to stakeholder groups
(c) whether the 90-minute session provides ample opportunity for participant involvement
(d) scholarly and practical expertise of the presentation team
