Workshop Proposal

The International Social Capital Association (ISCA) invites proposals for workshops to be held in conjunction with Social Capital 2026. We welcome submissions from academics, practitioners, policymakers, community leaders, and others with relevant expertise or experience.

Workshops offer an opportunity to engage participants in hands-on, collaborative learning or exploration of specific topics related to social capital, whether theoretical, methodological, applied, or cross-disciplinary. Since this is our first conference, only approximately 10 workshops will be selected from the proposals received.

Deadline for workshop proposals: October 15, 2025

Workshops will take place on Thursday, March 26, 2026, at Heriot-Watt University’s Dubai campus. They will be up to three hours in duration and held during the day, with the opening keynote presentation in the afternoon.
