5. Online Unconference Sessions
Engage with fellow conference attendees online during and after IASC 2025 in a process where the agenda is yours to build together.
What questions, if answered, would make the most difference in your work and that of others? Join the Unconference to name and explore them together.
There are two sessions during IASC 2025 and two immediately following it:
- 20 June, 02:00-06:00 UTC — best for South and East Asia, Oceania, Western N. America
- 20 June, 13:00-17:00 UTC — best for South Asia, Africa, Europe, Eastern N. America

All calls use the Plenary Zoom line: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/83934408515 (password emailed to conference registrants on Monday, June 9).
Each call follows the same flow:
- 30 minutes to welcome participants and identify the topics for the call.
- Three rounds of conversation on the topics that have been identified.
- 30 minutes to reflect as a full group on what has taken place.
You are welcome to come late or leave early. Notes will be taken and shared after each call.
