2026 Winter Symposium
2026 Winter Symposium: Strategic Communication for Collective Action
Friday, January 30, 2026 | 8:30 a.m.–6:30 p.m. EST
This year’s Winter Symposium focuses on the power of the people to solve collective problems. How do we organize for change? How do we inspire a movement? What technologies allow us to mobilize? These questions are relevant to strategic communicators, whether working toward social impact, democratic renewal, or the spread of innovative ideas. Learn how top communicators think about advocacy, influence, and shared leadership in troubled times.
Space is limited. RSVP soon.
