The PolMeth Europe in Hamburg is cancelled for 2020 and will be postponed to March 2021 in form of a hybrid conference.
All preparations were done to set up the first PolMeth Europe in Hamburg in March 2020. Due to the starting Corona pandemic., this conference needed to be cancelled by short notice and was in a first step postponed to September 2020.
Facing the current situation, it will still be difficult in September 2020 to welcome all participants in Hamburg due to health and safety risks, travel registrations and conference regulations. The biggest aim and incentive of the first PolMeth Europe is to set up a more European based network of political methodologists. The PolMeth Europe Organizing Committee would appreciate to enable a get-together for starting a fruitful networking base. The Commitee does not support the idea, that a virtual PolMeth Europe would be an equal alternative to achieve this aim.
Therefore, it has been decided to also cancel the conference in September 2020 and to postpone the PolMeth Europe to March 2021 in form of a hybrid conference. More details regarding date and organization will follow.
The PolMeth Europe Organizing Committee is very much looking forward to welcome all participants in Hamburg in March 2021 instead.
