We once again invite you to join your peers in exploring, co-creating and connecting at the EMCC Global Annual Conference.

The conference schedule

We will start our conference on the evening of Monday 30 June, connecting for in-person orientation and friendship, storytelling related to the local context and an atmospheric dinner to welcome you to the space.

Day Two – 1 July – will be devoted to workshops and panels and will bring together in-person and online participants. With experimentation and curiosity, we explore ethics, humanity amid AI and reflective learning.  At the close, and as we wave farewell to our online participants, we come together for a celebration dinner, also honouring award winners who have made a significant contribution in 2024.

Day Three – 2 July – is an in-person experience taking full advantage of the creative trails around Warwick University. A World Cafe approach will give us opportunity to explore challenges and opportunities of our profession in a global context.
