The Anne Frank Project prides itself on being an ACTIVELY ENGAGED academic conference. We ask that all conference attendees engage in hands-on activities to enhance their experience such as writing, artwork, performance, group problem solving or role play. Question/Answer periods and dialogue are valuable and important to AFP but should not be the only participatory element of each session.
In addition to standard presentation sessions we are seeking Performance proposals. If you have a performance (theater, dance, music, spoken word) that addresses our annual theme please apply through the CFP link. Be sure to answer all questions pertaining specifically to performance. Keep in mind the necessary technical requirements and appropriate rehearsal time prior to the conference.
The mission of The Anne Frank Project is to encourage communities to utilize the words and wisdom of Anne Frank as a starting point for the intense examination of genocide, intolerance, bigotry and racism as a means towards finding solutions towards an elevated and shared human condition.
