Led by Icon’s specialist groups and their committee members, these events form part of the wider Icon Conference 2026: Practice, People, and Purpose programme.
With a combination of in-person and online sessions, they are designed to make participation in Icon26 as accessible as possible. The events include a variety of workshops, tours, presentations, and webinars, offering opportunities to delve into different conservation specialisms.
Conference delegates are able to attend all events free of charge as part of their main conference fee. The first events are live now for conference delegates to book with more due to be announced over the coming weeks.
