The 2026 IUS Canada Conference will be held at Carleton University in Ottawa, Ontario from October 23-25. We welcome papers or organized panels that address the key themes of interest to the IUS Fellows in support of emerging scholarly research dealing with the military establishment and civil-military relations.
Papers in all areas touching on defence and security in national and international contexts are eagerly solicited. To advance intersectional considerations in scholarly and military professional discourse, we particularly encourage submissions that bring new academic, cultural or regional perspectives to broaden analytic frameworks and professional perspectives on defence and security. We therefore, wish to encourage submissions representing the full range of academic disciplines as well as those providing organized presentations on lived experiences in the military and societies.
