The full programme has abstracts for all sessions. Slides, photos, write-ups and video are appearing on this site during September.

Coverage

Paul Ayres of Intute Social Sciences wrote a series of blog posts reviewing the conference, but sadly the Intute blog has been taken down and does not seem to be archived.
