The local organising  committee for the 2026 IAWBH International conference has met several times this year and will shortly finalise the  conference theme and  call for abstracts. In the mean time, please put the dates in your calendars.

Canberra is the capital of Australia. It is a short direct flight from both Sydney and Melbourne.  There is a direct bus (Murrays) with pick-ups from the domestic and internationals airport in Sydney to the centre of Canberra. It takes about three hours. More to follow.

papers from IAWBH14, 2024 

Our 14th International conference was held in Huddersfield, UK, from 25-28 June 2024,. It was  inspiring to hear from our esteemed colleagues, Professors Stale Valatne Einarsen and Eva Gemzoe Mikkelson and also from the team from the International Labour Organisation (ILO) as well as researchers and practitioners from across the globe. A huge thank you in particular to Stale and Eva, to the ILO team, and to Dr Frances McGregor and her team for putting together an  unforgettable and stimulating event which provided a great opportunity to network and to hear from so many researchers and practitioners. Here is a link to proceedings.
