5th International Singles Studies Conference
July 8, 2026 (hybrid conference) Edinburgh, Scotland
As a Co-Chair of Conference Subcommittee for ISSA (International Singles Studies Association) 5th Annual Conference, I am excited to share the call for abstracts for the 5th Annual Single Studies Association (ISSA) Conference. ISSA website: https://sites.google.com/mail.huji.ac.il/singlehoodstudies/events/annual-conference
The theme of this year’s conference is “The Single Majority: Single Studies for a Changing Society.” In many parts of the world, single adults now make up a significant and growing share of the population. This conference seeks contributions that deepen our understanding of single life in its many evolving forms and contexts, and that critically examine how rising rates of singlehood are transforming social norms, economic structures, cultural narratives, and policy landscapes.
