The fifth London International Boundary Conference (“LIBC”) will take place on 12 and 13 December 2022. The event will take a hybrid format. The first day of events will take place at the King’s College Stamford Street Lecture Theatre, located south of the river in the Waterloo Campus (127 Stamford Street, London SE1 9NQ) and the second conference day will be virtual. The LIBC 2022 will provide a unique and multidisciplinary insight into the complex world of international boundary and territorial questions. Like previous LIBC conferences, during this edition of the LIBC speakers and participants will be drawn from the fields of law, social sciences, physical sciences and diplomacy.

The abstract should be written in English and contain no more than 500 words. It should include the title of the paper, as well as the name, title, affiliation and contact details of the author.
The deadline for submissions is 4 November 2022.
