The ALTA Conference Committee invites proposals for panels and workshops for ALTA47: "Voices in Translation," from October 25-28, 2024 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. We know that the ability to converse with fellow conference-goers is an important hallmark of ALTA programming. You may propose two different kinds of sessions: 5-person panels, or workshops organized by 1 or 2 workshop leaders (and open to anyone to attend). 

The deadline to propose a session is June 17, 2024.

At ALTA, community is our priority, and our goal is to create a safe and positive ALTA conference in Milwaukee this fall by reducing health risks and acting out of care for ourselves and others. Making the conference more accessible to disabled and immunocompromised participants helps keep all of us safer and healthier. Masks will be required for audience members in the conference hotel.
