conference proceedings | Call for Submission
The International Workshop on Agritourism (IWA) is inviting submissions to the 2022 IWA Conference Proceedings. If you presented at the 2022 IWA, this is a great opportunity to develop your presentation into a peer-reviewed publication.
The intended audiences for the proceedings include agritourism operators, agricultural service providers, researchers, tourism professionals, agritourism associations, and practitioners who will benefit from the wide array of applied research and outreach programs presented in the proceedings. The secondary audience includes faculty and students in agritourism related academic programs who will benefit from having access to current applied research and programs that highlight how IWA and partners help address opportunities, issues and trends in agritourism.
The proceedings will be published by and shared widely via the National Extension Tourism website as an open source, peer reviewed, digital publication for faculty, students and practitioners. The proceedings will also be available on Agritourism (eurac.edu).
The proceedings are expected to be published by June 10, 2023.
