Population Geography Research Group conference session sponsorship
The Population Geography Research Group (PopGRG) invites you to submit proposals for sponsorship at the Annual International Conference 2026. The conference will take place at the Society and Imperial College, London, and online Wednesday 2 to Friday 4 September 2026.
We are a planning for an event with in-person, online, and hybrid options (subject to availability).
The theme for the 2026 Annual Conference, chaired by Professor Peter Hopkins (Newcastle University), is Geographies of inequalities: towards just places.
The PopGRG welcomes session proposals aligned to the conference theme or on population geographies or the geographies of population as broadly defined.
This could include but not be limited to: migration; diversity; population transitions; population structures; inequalities; birth, lives and death; different methodological approaches to understanding population geography.
We welcome proposals for all different types of sessions and accept co-sponsorships with other Research Groups.
While sponsorship is not required, we will promote your session along with the other sessions we sponsor, providing your session with broader publicity within the population geography community. Note, that while sponsorship does not include financial support, you might be able to apply for a guest pass for your session presenters if they meet the eligibility criteria.
Please send the information below to rhj@aber.ac.uk before the close of Monday 9 February 2026.
- Session title
- Session abstract (250 words)
- Session organisers’ names, affiliation, and emails
- Session format and an indication of for how many timeslots sponsorship is requested
- Whether you aim for a co-sponsorship with other groups
We aim to inform session organisers of the decisions on Monday 16 February 2026.
Deadline: 9 February 2026.
