The call for proposals deadline is fast approaching for the Federation’s Big Thinking Summit: Inflection Point, taking place from June 9 to 11, 2026, in Edmonton.
The Summit will gather the humanities and social sciences (HSS) community from across disciplines and sectors to demonstrate our power to adress Canada’s most pressing issues.
We would appreciate your support in ensuring faculty and students at your institution are aware of this opportunity to bring their ideas to a national stage. We encourage you to promote this message widely, either by sharing the link to the Call for proposals webpage or by re-sharing our social posts below.
We are actively encouraging proposals in French, and warmly welcome submissions in either official language, and are seeking ideas that reflect the breadth and diversity of HSS research across Canada’s postsecondary institutions. Presenters will benefit from substantial visibility and recognition of their work, the chance to engage new audiences, and to connect with a community that’s shaping what’s next.
Proposals must be submitted by Monday, November 17, 2025.
Thank you for helping bring your research and perspectives to this national dialogue.
Sincerely,
The Federation team
