Assalamu alaikum,
This is an impressive iniative. Allah (SWT) Ya bada sa'a.

The call for papers is very late in the day. Papers have to be in 5 days before the conference. I think this is very very short notice and it is unlikely that u will get meaningful material passed to u as a result.

I think the paper submission can be adjusted Husnaa. Anyone interested in sending one, I think can do it, but it should reach us at least 2 days before the confab. What we actually intend doing is to come and meet (stakeholders) and get to know and familarize with one another. Will update you if there's any change in plan. We had an impromptu meeting at ABU yesterday. Will alos update you over what transpired.
Regards.
