It was wonderful today to meet together with the Children’s Voices Centre’s Thursday Research Community Meeting to work on abstract to submit for the Children’s Voices Conference 2026.
Abstracts close Monday 11th May!
The theme for our conference is “Creating a more inclusive world for children”. A theme I am very excited about.
This is a FREE international conference (with FREE registration, FREE abstract submission, and it is FREE to attend)!
If you are a practitioner, established or emerging researcher, or research student, doing work with, for, or about children (from early childhood through to adulthood), this is the opportunity to share your work! Abstracts are open now and close on Monday 11 May 2026. All abstracts are considered by the scientific review committee and outcomes will be notified in July.
The conference will run from Sep 1-3 2026. All presentations will be prerecorded and streamed online, with perpetual access to presentations.
Our previous conferences have attracted approximately 1,500 participants from around the world, along with countless presentation views post the conference.
As co-chair, along with the wonderful Distinguished Professor Sharynne McLeod and Associate Professor Tamara Cumming , I couldn’t be more excited to invite you to register, present, and share widely!

I look forward to hearing about your work!
