A letter from Janet Wasko, IAMCR's president, informs us of the association's plans in light of the rapid and unpredictable developments associated with COVID-19. IAMCR and its partners at Tampere University, are planning online activities in lieu of a face-to-face conference in Finland.
2,432 abstracts were submitted to IAMCR 2020 by authors in 86 different countries. Our 33 sections and working groups have now begun their review of the work, while we also monitor coronavirus Covid-19 developments.
In this letter, Bruce Girard, IAMCR Executive Director, reflects on the 2020 conference transition from Beijing to Tampere. It was sent on 25 February, 2020, with the first of a series of "Tampere Updates", sent to current IAMCR members and potential participants of IAMCR Tampere 2020.
