Poster Content Submission Guidelines

As part of the 2025 CAER-IFPRI Annual Conference, we invite participants to focus solely on creating detailed and informative text for their posters. The conference team will handle all aspects of design and layout to ensure a professional and uniform presentation.

Content Requirements:

Please use the provided Poster_Template_2025_CAER_IFPRI_Conference.docx to organize and format your content. To ensure clarity and effectiveness in your poster presentation, we encourage you to use bullet points and images wherever possible. This helps in emphasizing core ideas and makes the information easier to digest for viewers.

• Limit the Number of Images: Aim for 3-5 images total, including graphs, charts, and photographs. This helps maintain a balance between visual appeal and informational content.

• Captions: Provide a brief caption for each image, explaining its relevance and how it relates to the text content.

• Placement: Strategically place images near the related text to facilitate a natural flow of information.
