The first International Congress of Laboratories in Social Sciences will take place on September 23 and 24. Due to the calendar changes of the confinement that this coronavirus pandemic is forcing all of us to carry out, we believe that the best option is to hold the congress in a non-face-to-face format. In consequence, we will guarantee to all those interested in participating that we will facilitate the technical capacity so that everyone can make his/her presentation and participate in the discussion.

We leave the option of personal attendance open for those who will be able to attend personally. For this, it is necessary that you let us know while you register by sending us an email (sociallab@uv.es) saying that you are going to come to Valencia.

It is very important that you register in order to upload your proposal (new deadline 24 of July).

This congress aims to bring together supervisors and scientists responsible for Social Labs to share experiences and discuss topics related to functioning, empiricism, experimentation, and transfer to society, among others.

Participants are invited to prepare a presentation (for 15-20 minutes) where they first introduce their lab and, secondly, focus on one of the topics below. In this presentation, participants must identify strengths, opportunities, and challenges in order to create an enriching discussion:

The topics for discussion are:
1) Versatility in laboratories of social sciences (tasks, functions, users) .
2) Empiricism, experimentation, transfer to society.
3) Technical equipment and human resources
4) Governance, financing, and participation of the private sector
5) Selection of good practices among projects carried out in Social Sciences Labs.
6) What is next? Networking among social labs.
