CONFERENCES & EVENTS
Join us at our annual conference, symposia, and webinars, held by or in association with the Comparative Civilizations Forum.
55th CCF Annual Conference
September 9-13, 2026 UlaanBaatar, Mongolia
Since 1961, the Comparative Civilizations Forum (formerly ISCSC) has organized annual conferences across four continents, bringing together scholars, thinkers, and practitioners dedicated to the study of civilizations.
These gatherings serve as the Forum’s intellectual cornerstone — fostering dialogue that bridges cultures, disciplines, and generations.
Each conference offers a space to share research, exchange perspectives, and build lasting collaborations, continuing a tradition that has shaped civilizational studies for more than six decades.
Webinars
The Comparative Civilizations Forum hosts regular webinars and online dialogues that extend our global conversation beyond conferences.
These virtual gatherings connect scholars, students, and practitioners across continents to discuss emerging civilizational themes, new research, and contemporary global issues.
Designed to be interactive and accessible, CCF webinars reflect our mission to make civilizational thinking a shared, living practice — one that thrives through continual dialogue and the exchange of ideas.
Symposia
The Comparative Civilizations Forum organizes special symposia in partnership with universities, cultural institutions, and research centers around the world.
These focused gatherings offer a platform for in-depth exploration of specific civilizational themes — from cultural exchange and governance to technology, ethics, and education.
Smaller in scale but rich in substance, each symposium embodies the Forum’s mission to bridge disciplines and foster collaboration, turning shared inquiry into lasting partnerships across civilizations.
