ASEH Presents welcomed proposals for individual presentations or full panels. There was no specific thematic focus and presentations span all geographical and temporal boundaries. We encouraged proposals that highlighted the variety of recent research in environmental history and related disciplines, especially sessions that use innovative formats such as GIS, StoryMaps, or other emerging technologies that take advantage of the online environment. We also hope this virtual format will provide a space for members who might be unable to attend in-person conferences to  tune in to sessions.  

Submissions were evaluated by the ASEH Presents Program Committee. 

The ASEH has no plans to record or archive any sessions, though organizers and presenters may make recordings, if the requisite permissions from all participants are secured.
