The theme for our Annual Conference is Women’s Health Justice: Recovering the Past to Shape the Future. There is currently an open call for proposals from our community and these will be selected by our community partners: Black Metropolis Research Consortium (BMRC), Evanston History Center, and the Women and Leadership Archives at Loyola University. We are also delighted to be partnering with DePaul University this year who will be working on the design for the conference.
The closing date for proposal submissions is February 14, 2026 from our community.
Earlybird registration opens on February 14, 2026 and registration will close on Tuesday March 17, 2026.
We also support youth to attend the conference with a range of scholarships that will go live on February 14, 2026 and close on March 2, 2026.
