Dear colleagues

I am delighted to invite you to our 32nd Annual International Conference, which in 2022 will be in the fabulous Yorkshire City of Leeds. This will be the 1st NOTA annual conference to take place in person after the restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic! It is a great opportunity to come back together as a research and practice community to be able to reconnect on the most effective and innovative ways to prevent as well as respond to sexual abuse.

NOTA’s Annual Conference attracts speakers and delegates from around the world, consistently drawing praise for the quality of the presentations, the warm and positive atmosphere of the event and above all the quality and usefulness of the learning that delegates take away and back into their work. There will be a range of keynotes, symposia, workshops, research presentations and planned interactive poster sessions along with unprecedented networking opportunities. Keynote speakers are stated as part of this announcement. We very much hope that you will submit a proposal for a breakout – an opportunity to share your work with your professional community.

We are delighted to be hosting our conference in the City of Leeds, at the spectacular Art Deco-inspired Queens Hotel that is right in the city centre but with unrivalled access to rail and air links. We look forward to receiving your submission if you’d like to present, or if not then we look forward to welcoming you as a delegate in Leeds.
