NO SHOW POLICY

Dear Authors and Participants of IICIS 2025,

As part of our commitment to upholding scientific integrity, academic responsibility, and meaningful knowledge dissemination, the Organizing Committee of the 5^th International Indonesia Conference on Interdisciplinary Studies (IICIS) 2025 has established the following No Show Policy. This policy applies to all authors whose papers have been accepted for presentation at this event.

No Show Policy

The IICIS 2025 No Show Policy outlines the conditions under which a paper is classified as a “No Show.” This refers to cases where authors fail to present their accepted papers at the scheduled time and session. A paper will be deemed a “No Show” under any of the following circumstances:

• • None of the listed authors (nor an officially appointed representative) attends any of the IICIS 2025 sessions,
  • The designated presenter (or appointed representative) fails to attend the session on time or does not appear according to the published schedule, resulting in no available opportunity or allocated time for the paper to be presented,
  • The presenter delivers content that significantly deviates from the submitted paper or fails to meet general academic presentation standards,
  • The paper is presented by a representative who is not officially registered or formally appointed by the original author(s),
  • The presenter is absent without prior notice and without providing a valid reason.

Consequences of a “No Show”

Regrettably, papers classified as “No Show” will not be published in the official proceedings of the 5^th IICIS 2025. In addition:

• • These papers will not be considered for further publication assistance in any of the nationally accredited Indonesian journals or Scopus-indexed international journals affiliated with this year’s conference.
  • The IICIS Committee will record these cases, which may influence future decisions on submissions or publications involving the same authors.

Rationale Behind This Policy

This policy is designed to ensure the best interests of all participants and uphold the integrity of the conference. Through its implementation, we aim to:

• • Foster a meaningful academic forum for knowledge sharing, discussion, and collaboration,
  • Ensure that each accepted paper receives the academic attention and positive feedback it deserves,
  • Promote active and responsible participation from all contributors,
  • Prevent “ghost submissions”—papers submitted without genuine intent to present,
  • Strengthen the credibility of IICIS among Indonesian and international academic communities,
  • Support the reputations of our partner journals and publishers, both national and international.

Exceptional Circumstances

We understand that emergencies and extraordinary situations may arise. Exceptions to this policy may be granted only under the following verified circumstances:

• • Medical emergencies,
  • Force majeure events (e.g., natural disasters, extraordinary incidents/events)
  • Urgent and verifiable professional or personal obligations.

To request an exception, the presenter must contact the designated representatives in advance and provide a formal letter along with relevant supporting documentation:

• • Nibras Fadhlillah : +62 822 2658 3640
  • Khairunnisa S : +62 815 1702 1296
  • Email : iicis@fisip.unila.ac.id

Once received, the organizing committee will review the request and provide further instructions. If approved, presenters may fulfill their participation requirement through one of the following alternatives:

• • Appoint a co-author or an officially designated representative who is fully familiar with the content,
  • Request a format change to online participation (live virtual presentation),
  • Submit a pre-recorded video presentation as a final alternative if live participation is not feasible.

Final Remarks

We firmly believe that every author whose work has been accepted is an integral part of the academic ecosystem we are building together. We sincerely appreciate your commitment to participating in this conference and your contribution to its success. We hope that IICIS 2025 will be an exceptional and enriching experience for you.

Warm regards,

Organizing Committee
The 5^th IICIS 2025
