About Conference
This hybrid event aims to bring together Afghan and international scholars, and policymakers to engage with Afghanistan’s evolving crises and support its scholarly and professional communities.
To promote inclusivity and interdisciplinary engagement, we have chosen not to announce a specific theme for this year’s conference. This decision allows scholars across a wide range of disciplines—including law, political science, economics, sociology, anthropology, history, education, and public policy—to submit and present their research freely, encouraging a rich and diverse exchange of ideas. You may submit an individual abstract or you may propose a panel.
