The Twenty-first International Conference on Technology, Knowledge, and Society is brought together by a shared interest in the complex and subtle relationships between technology, knowledge and society. We seek to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries. As a Research Network we are defined by our scope and concerns and motivated to build strategies for action framed by our shared themes and tensions.
The Twenty-first International Conference on Technology, Knowledge, and Society features research addressing the following annual themes and special focus:
In-Person: In-Person presentations will be delivered onsite. We offer innovative formats for a range of presentation styles.
Online Only: online presentations will be delivered and viewed online as asynchronous digital media. Online Only presenters also have discussion boards to structure conversations and access to other online activities.
Conference as Archive: we'll capture and add as much content as possible on the conference microsite. While it's a requirement for online-only presenters, we strongly encourage in-person presenters to pre-record and upload their presentations to the conference microsite. The conference microsite becomes an archive to which delegates and Research Network members can return anytime.
With this step-by-step guide, we walk you through the new phases pre/during/post-conference to ensure you have a productive conference.
In-Person: participate in innovative in-person formats, plenaries, talking circles, garden conversations, and on a human scale. You will also have access to all online-only content.
Online Only: gain access to live and recorded presentations, welcome addresses, plenaries, and curated thematic content -- from any place and in your own time.
Conference as Archive: we'll capture and add as much content as possible on the conference microsite. And you can help here too. If you do not see digital media on a presenter page, you can request it from the presenter. You can also add comments to discussion boards of all content. The conference microsite becomes an archive to which delegates and Research Network members can return anytime.
We are working to change how knowledge is produced, validated, and shared within member-based Research Networks.
The International Journal of Technology, Knowledge, and Society offers pathways to transform your presentation into formal research objects. We also offer several affordable Open Access pathways to allow maximum flexibility to support principles of open research and funder mandates.

All Presenters (In-Person and Online Only) are asked to upload Digital Media (a video of the presentation as embed code, MP4, PowerPoint, or PDF) to their Presentation pages. This content will be delivered and viewed online as asynchronous digital media. We require presenters to add their digital media to their Presenter Page at least one week before the conference start date, as our Program Development Team will review all media.
