Tourism development is interlinked with a number of other economic sectors such as agriculture, transport, infrastructure, construction, energy, and, in general, socio-economic development and planning. The tourism sector also embraces different aspects of historical heritage and cultural diversity, environmental and ecosystem protection, climate change, and water management.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CMF3 will be held from 4\u00a0to 6 July\u00a02023\u00a0and will be hosted by Kutaisi Akaki Tsereteli State University, Georgia.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>CMF3 will offer a combination of plenary sessions open to the public, research sessions, workshops, and poster sessions. The organisers invite participants to choose among the following types of contributions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Abstracts for oral presentation in research sessions (max 300 words + 5 keywords). Research sessions provide academic researchers with a chance to present and discuss their latest scientific findings. Researchers from non-academic settings (NGOs, government, private sector) are also invited.<\/li>\n<li>Abstracts for a practical example in a workshop (max. 300 words). The purpose of the workshops is to stimulate discussion and exchange between practitioners and scientists. Practical examples in policy advocacy; scientific networking; leveraging spatial data education for sustainable development, natural hazards, and disaster risk reduction are expected. As a consequence, workshop presentations are expected to be short, focusing on practical insights from development projects, policy initiatives, or teaching practices.<\/li>\n<li>Abstracts for a poster presentation (max. 200 words). Posters will be displayed in a prominent area. Poster presenters will attend two dedicated poster sessions. The size of the posters should not exceed A0 format (84 cm x 119 cm). One-page handouts will be available. The prize for the best poster will be awarded during the closing session.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Deadlines:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Abstract submission deadline: 15\u00a0January, 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Deadline for the notification of abstract acceptance: 15\u00a0February 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Abstracts are to be submitted in English only to CMF2023@caucasus-mt.net using the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.caucasus-mt.net\/laravel-filemanager\/files\/Abstract%20Submission%20Form%202023.docx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u00a0Abstract Submission Form<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Scholarships will be available primarily for participants from the region.<\/p>\n<p>For more details visit: <a class=\"x1i10hfl xjbqb8w x6umtig x1b1mbwd xaqea5y xav7gou x9f619 x1ypdohk xt0psk2 xe8uvvx xdj266r x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r xexx8yu x4uap5 x18d9i69 xkhd6sd x16tdsg8 xggy1nq x1a2a7pz xt0b8zv x1heor9g x1bvjpef\" tabindex=\"-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.caucasus-mt.net\/Caucasus-Mountain-Forum-2023\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/www.caucasus-mt.net\/Caucasus-Mountain-Forum-2023<\/a><\/p>\n<p>2023<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-15899 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/event\/caucasus-mountain-forum-2023\/70874-2\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/70874-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>[wpai_display_imported_files_here]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Designed to be a meeting place for scientists, policymakers, and practitioners from the Caucasus region and beyond, the third Caucasus Mountain Forum (CMF3)\u00a0follows in the footsteps of\u00a0CMF1 (2016) and\u00a0CMF2 (2019) [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":11565,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[67],"tribe_events_cat":[51],"class_list":["post-15899","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-qaz-en","tribe_events_cat-events","cat_events"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/15899","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tribe_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15899"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/15899\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11565"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15899"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15899"},{"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/events.iliauni.edu.ge\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events_cat?post=15899"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
