Abstract

This paper is meant to provide guidance on how to plan an important national/international conference. At the outset four phases of the conference are introduced : concept, planning, execution and post-conference wind-up. The work to be done in each phase is described in detail. The main and sub-themes, dates, size, site, sponsors and selection of chief guests and main speakers are determined by the Planning Cell. The main committees required to do detailed planning: stearing, technical, organizing, and finance committees are set up. The functions of each committee are discussed in detail. The paper concludes with the work to be done after the conference is over, in order to bring it to a successful close.
