On Thursday, May 8th, the Federation for the Humanities and Social Sciences announced that Congress 2026 (in its typical format) has been cancelled. FHSS’s full announcement can be accessed here.
Congress 2025, including the CHA’s 2025 conference, will continue as planned and is not affected by this news.
Since the CHA’s annual conference is held as part of Congress, this announcement has important implications for next year. Before deciding on 2026, the Executive would like to gauge the interests of the membership. To that end, a survey has been distributed to CHA members. The results of this survey will determine our next steps, which will be shared publicly as soon as possible.
