Theme: Pursuing sustainability from an auxiliary commitment to a core priority, beyond common-sense, in a changing political and socio-economic landscape.

We are asking: How do we redefine the ways we convey sustainability and ecological engineering, from a rather often seen auxiliary solutions to fit within the core values of any upcoming change?

The SEEDS community is a confluence of experienced and early-career researchers from across the world and from diverse disciplines. 

This melting pot encourages exciting conversations and opportunities to collaborate. Members of the SEEDS community, who have met during previous years of the conference, are now working on projects and submitting research papers together.

If you're passionate about your research and eager to connect with a diverse community of like-minded individuals, the International SEEDS conference is for you.

The conference will follow a hybrid delivery model. The first day of the conference (03 Sept) will be online only, and the following two days (04 & 05 Sept) will be held in-person at Loughborough University.

There will be a gala dinner and awards ceremony hosted at a venue on Loughborough University's campus, which you are welcome to attend as part of the full conference pricing option.

Early Bird rate applies up until 1 July 2025

At the inception of the Carnegie College of Physical Education in 1933 women were not allowed to study at the college. Over the years much has changed and now the Carnegie School of Sport (CSS) has a long history of delivering high quality and impactful research and knowledge exchange focusing on women in sport and exercise science. 
The CSS continues to evolve, delivering courses across a variety of disciplines including Physical Education, sport coaching, sport performance, sport business, sport marketing, and sport and exercise science. We look forward to continuing the School’s rich history of shining a light on women in sport and exercise science in partnership with the Women in Sport and Exercise Academic Network (WiSEAN). 

The 2025 conference theme ‘WiSER Together: Valuing diversity and collaborating for change' acknowledges that by collectively coming together to share knowledge across disciplines, a range of contemporary challenges and societal concerns regarding women in sport and exercise can be grappled with and possible solutions identified.

The goals of WiSER Together 2025 are:
·       To provide a multi-disciplinary space for colleagues to network and collaborate for change.
·       To welcome a diversity of colleagues to share and celebrate research in relation to women and girls in sport and exercise.
·       To provide a variety of knowledge exchange formats to promote learning and provoke critical debate.  
·       To improve conditions for different women and girls in sport and exercise, from grassroots sports to elite level performance.

Early bird rate until the 15th April 2025.
After this date, the amount will increase.
