ENCORS 2027 - Call for Session Proposals

ENCORS 2027 is Europe’s premier research security conference and will be held at TU Delft on 25–26 May 2027. On 24 May, there is also room for pre-conference workshops. The organising team invites session proposals for inclusion in the conference programme. Given the nature of ENCORS, we particularly welcome practical and operational session proposals, though policy-oriented sessions are also welcome.
ENCORS is an in-person conference. Speakers are eligible for 50% discount on the conference fee. This does not apply to proposers or session chairs unless they are also presenting. Please refer to the ENCORS website for more details.
