Call for bids for hosting the XXII ISA World Congress of Sociology in 2031

The Executive Committee of the International Sociological Association (ISA) will invite all ISA collective members and public universities to make a bid to host the XXII ISA World Congress of Sociology in 2031 will be released by mid-2025.

National sociological associations, ISA regular collective members, universities, and sociology departments can bid to host an ISA Forum on Sociology.

While bid initiatives may originate from other institutions (e.g., national or provincial tourist organizations, congress centers, and professional conference organizers), the ISA Executive Committee will only consider them if the National Sociological Association or the proposed hosting university fully supports them. Ensuring an active sociological community in the host country formally committed to organizing the Forum is crucial to a successful bid.
