The Association for Tropical Biology and Conservation (ATBC) is thrilled to announce a triple call for proposals to host our global conferences in 2027, 2028, and 2029.
Each year, ATBC brings together hundreds of scientists, conservation practitioners, students, and policymakers from around the world to share research, build collaborations, and advance tropical biology and conservation. We are scheduling three consecutive annual meetings to provide host institutions with more time to prepare, strengthen partnerships, and showcase tropical biodiversity at a global scale.
We invite proposals from members, institutions, and organizations worldwide and especially encourage proposals from institutions based in the Global South, which will receive priority in this selection cycle. In alignment with ATBC’s tradition of rotating annual meetings across regions to foster global participation and inclusivity, proposals to host the conference in Africa (2027), Latin America (2028), and the Asia-Pacific region (2029) will receive special consideration.
We are looking for creative, diverse, and innovative proposals, particularly those that highlight new solutions to pressing conservation challenges.

We invite you to send a proposal through the online form.
