Where Research Becomes Dialogue
The Contemporary Innovations Journal (CIJ) extends its mission beyond publication into the living exchange of ideas through conferences and workshops designed for rigorous debate, collaborative inquiry, and meaningful scholarly engagement.
All CIJ events reflect our open-access philosophy. Participation is inclusive, registration fees are kept minimal, waiver programmes support researchers from lower-income regions, and selected sessions are live-streamed to ensure global accessibility.
Our flagship interdisciplinary gathering, hosted annually in rotating global locations.
Focused academic forums organised in partnership with CIJ journals and editorial boards.
Professional development programmes tailored for doctoral and postdoctoral researchers.
Practical training in quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-method research approaches.
Guidance on manuscript preparation, peer review processes, and academic communication.
Quarterly online sessions featuring leading scholars discussing emerging research themes.
OASPA's annual conference is the only event that brings together the whole of the open access community, accelerating connection, discovery and new thinking.Join us this September in Croatia to exchange thoughts with a global network of experts and peers, and to help us shape the future of open access.
CIJ welcomes abstract submissions from researchers at all career stages. All submissions undergo peer review by the Event Scientific Committee.
