The Sibling Studies Network is pleased to announce that it will host the 3rd Annual Sibling Studies Colloquium, held online on 16th January 2025 (a half day). The thematic focus of this year’s conference is ‘Sibling Relationships: Interdisciplinary Conversations’.


Scholarship on sibling relationships is growing across a variety of disciplines and the goal of this year’s Sibling Studies Colloquium is to engage in interdisciplinary conversations to advance research and practice related to sibling relationships and systems they interact and operate within. We warmly invite proposals from professionals (including academics and practitioners) from various disciplinary backgrounds including, but not limited to, psychology, sociology, criminology, social work, anthropology, human development, family therapy, disability disciplines, healthcare, neuroscience, genetics, history, literature, art, theatre, and other humanities. Established and early career (including graduate students and postdoctoral scholars) professionals are encouraged to submit proposals. 


If you would like to be part of the colloquium, please submit a title and abstract of up to 250 words by November 15, on our Google form, which you can access below. The Colloquium will last approximately 4 hours and individual presentations will be 15-20 minutes.
