2026 Workshop Call Open 

Applications to lead a workshop at SCCS-NY 2026 are now open! If you would like to lead a workshop, please complete the workshop application form. We welcome a range of workshop topics (e.g., tools to advance research, career planning and professional development, innovative approaches for management, policy, and interdisciplinary collaboration, discussion-based topics, science and art). Proposals will be evaluated based on their interactiveness and relevance to biodiversity conservation (broadly—we encourage creativity and interdisciplinary ideas!).  

We encourage conservation professionals, faculty, and students to apply. Whether you offered a workshop at SCCS-NY in the past, or maybe you are considering it for the first time, we are looking forward to receiving a proposal from you!
