International Sopot Youth Conference 2026 entitled Where the World is Heading

INTERNATIONAL SOPOT YOUTH CONFERENCE Entitled: WHERE THE WORLD IS HEADING

The Sopot Science Association (SSA) welcomes contributions to the 2026 edition of the International Sopot Youth Conference entitled Where the World is Heading. The conference is the continuation of the Sopot Youth Forum. Since 2008 over 1000 scientists from many countries have presented their work during the event.

We invite young scientists or science enthusiasts, university students, Ph.D. students and young doctors to present their work, visions, opinions, and thoughts. The Sopot Youth Conference consists of two thematic blocks: humanities and social sciences & natural and physical sciences. Both oral (15 minutes) and poster presentations are welcome.

We welcome everyone to take part in the special, interdisciplinary session dedicated to inclusiveness in science. More information will be provided in the second circular.

The 2026 edition of the conference will be held in hybrid mode. Due to the multidisciplinary character of the conference, all abstracts and presentations should be prepared in such a way, as to be digestible for attendees outwith your discipline.
 
The Conference is held in English. Our Conference Proceedings are registered and have an ISBN number.

Just like in previous editions this year the best presentations will be granted AWARDS.
