Writing a Successful Abstract for the 2025 WAPOR Conference: Practical Guidance

With the Call for Abstracts now open for the 2025 WAPOR Conference, this webinar is designed to guide you through creating a compelling and well-structured abstract. Members of the WAPOR Education and Conference Committees will introduce the unique aspects of the WAPOR conference, set for St. Louis, United States on May 12-15, 2025. 

You’ll learn what makes WAPOR distinct, from its welcoming environment for both seasoned and new researchers to its emphasis on engaging presentations. Unlike other conferences, WAPOR’s sessions allow participants to share research interactively, with a friendly mix of practitioners and academic scholars who value learning and feedback. We’ll also cover important logistical details, including submission types (such as individual presentations, pre-organized panels, and posters), timelines, review processes, and guidelines on available paper awards.

The webinar will then provide essential tips on how to structure an effective abstract, focusing on clarity, conciseness, and highlighting key elements like research objectives, methods, and anticipated findings. Additional insider advice will be offered on tailoring submissions for the WAPOR audience, along with tips for students, early-career researchers, non-native English speakers, and those working across multiple co-authors.

Whether you’re an experienced conference-goer or preparing your first submission, this session will equip you with tools and strategies to craft an impactful abstract and make the most of your WAPOR conference experience. Join us for practical guidance and a chance to connect with others as you prepare for an engaging, globally-minded event!
