This is a call for papers for the upcoming Canadian Business Ethics Research Network (CBERN) PhD Winter Research Meeting in Toronto from Friday, March 22 - Sunday, March 24, 2013.
CBERN aims to promote knowledge-sharing and partnerships within the field of business ethics and across private, governmental, voluntary and academic sectors. An important mandate of CBERN is to support the next generation of researchers and practitioner-scholars from across Canada who participate in its PhD Cluster. The upcoming CBERN PhD Winter Research Meeting will bring members of the PhD Cluster together at York University. Accommodations will be provided at the Executive Learning Centre Hotel at the Schulich School of Business, York University.
Eligibility
Participants in the workshop must be registered in a PhD program at a Canadian institution, and working on a dissertation or substantial research project in business ethics, broadly construed. Please see more information at the end of this document regarding this criterion.
Workshop Format
All participants will present a work-in-progress, which could include a paper they hope to send for publication, a paper they are preparing for a conference, or a chapter of their PhD research project.
Completed papers will be made available to all participants for comment and pre-event discussion three weeks before the workshop, in a secure workspace on the CBERN website.
During the workshop, each presentation will include a 10 minute review of the paper, followed by a 35 minute critical discussion aimed at helping the student improve his or her work. To focus time on discussion, presenters are encouraged to limit PowerPoint presentations (if used) to 5 slides.
Each discussion session will involve a faculty and/or a government, industry or NGO advisor. Advisors will review papers in advance and provide critical feedback to the students at the workshop.

The deadline for submitting an abstract is Monday, January 7, 2013.
Abstracts should be no more than 400 words.
Please include author, title, overview of argument or approach to the research problem, and potential contribution to theory and practice.

We will attempt to include as many participants as possible. However, space is limited to 14 presentations.
