2026 International ACAC Conference Session Proposal Form

Are you overwhelmed by tote bags, lanyards, shirts, pens, and pins from conferences? So was I, until a closet avalanche broke me of my swag hoarding habit. My epic decluttering made me realize that conferences - from travel to food to swag - are typically not very sustainable events. This Conference Chat chronicles my efforts to be a more sustainable conference-goer in 2026. Learn how you can become a more sustainable conference attendee and how you can encourage your colleagues and institutions to be more sustainable, too. Inspired by the #TravelwithCANIE podcast episodes. Recycle your lanyard at the end of this conference!
