Hi All,

I don't often chime in on this listserv but I have been listening for (I believe) over a decade now.

Sad to hear that it is getting harder to do an annual in person conference, though I am acutely aware this is not only a problem for IVWS but is also hitting other conferencing organizations who rely on academic labor and resources that are becoming increasingly scant.

I agree that an online/digital conference is something to consider—-not just as a stop gap for next year, but also as a more permanent feature of the conference rotation.

I wanted to mention, though, that this is neither a new nor an easily-thrown together endevour. There have been three(!) online conferences/symposia organized through much labor by many of our most committed community members in recent years—Ben, Shilo, Laci all come to mind, though I am sure it took the work of many more to make these possible.

Here, for those thinking about further consideration, are links to (I think?) those events:

Hoping all are fairing well in the US (and beyond) under the absurd and horrible climate that we must currently navigate.

Best,
Molly

I just want to echo Mark's comment--that an online event of this sort could be marvelous and compensate for those of us who cannot travel for the Annual conferences each year. My online skills are just not the best but if there is something

This is just brainstorming-  would it be possible to do a bare bones  online conference that has regional hosts - say 3 sessions plus plenary each day hosted by a different location each day?  I’m thinking about distributing the labor and maybe having each day featuring a different location in the world … or something like that?

Just a thought…

A couple of people recently have asked me about plans for a Woolf conference in 2026. Unfortunately, there will be no conference next year. The person who had committed to organizing it dropped out some time ago and despite the best efforts of some others, it has not been possible to find an organizer and institution to hold the conference in 2026.

For anyone attending the conference in Sussex this July, there will be a time set aside to discuss planning for future conferences. Ane Thon Knutsen will brief us on her plans for the conference in Oslo in 2027 (already looking wonderful!), and I will raise the question (if time allows) of what to do given the current situation in the USA and the fact that an "annual" conference is now not annual.

All the best,

mark (aka Chair of the Steering Committee of the Annual Conference on VW!)
