2026 APRU Sustainable Cities and Landscapes Conference and Student Symposium

In-Person Conference | May 21-24, 2026 | Shanghai, China 

The APRU-SCL 2026 Conference will be hosted and organized by Shanghai Jiao Tong University. The conference will take place in and around Shanghai, along with related field trips. The conference will provide time for both working groups to meet and discuss collaborations while also enjoying a variety of guest speakers. There will be a Student Symposium incorporated into the conference program to allow young researchers to experience and be exposed to the valuable conversations of the APRU-SCL network. Students will present their work and receive feedback from faculty in related fields. This symposium is open to students of all levels. 

Funding

The University of Oregon will be providing travel awards to UO students and faculty who are interested in attending the conference. More information about UO-specific funding will also be posted in early 2026. If you are not from the University of Oregon, please check in with your university directly to inquire about travel support to this conference. 

Working Groups

Working groups are the core of the APRU Sustainable Cities and Landscapes conferences. Working groups represent an important opportunity for delegates to participate in collaborative research. A call for working group participation will go out the end of 2025 or beginning of 2026.
