We are delighted to invite workshop proposals for the 16th edition of the Student Conference on Conservation Science – Bengaluru (SCCS-Bng), to be held from 22nd to 25th September 2025.

SCCS-Bengaluru is one of the largest student-focused conservation conferences globally, offering a platform for early-career researchers and practitioners to build skills, exchange ideas, and engage with the latest developments in conservation science and practice. A key feature of the conference is our range of capacity-building workshops, designed to introduce participants to new concepts, critical thinking approaches, and practical techniques in conservation.

Each year, we aim to offer up to 40 workshops covering a variety of themes. Workshops are expected to be interactive and experiential, fostering active learning and engagement.

We are now inviting experienced scientists, practitioners, educators, and conservation professionals to submit proposals to conduct workshops during SCCS-Bengaluru 2025.

Review Process

We receive a large number of excellent workshop proposals every year, and due to the limited number of slots available, all submitted proposals will undergo a review process conducted by an expert committee.

The committee will assess proposals based on their relevance, clarity, potential for active engagement, and value to participants. After careful evaluation, a set of shortlisted workshops will be selected for inclusion in the SCCS-Bengaluru 2025 programme.

We encourage you to design workshops that are interactive, accessible, and impactful, with a focus on creating a rich learning experience for students and early-career researchers.

We look forward to your proposals and to an engaging and inspiring set of workshops that will help shape the next generation of conservationists!
