The World Anthropological Union (WAU) Congress 2027 brings together researchers, scholars, practitioners, and activists from across the globe. Held biennially, this flagship event provides a critical international platform to address pressing global issues, elevate pluralistic knowledge systems, and advance trans-national dialogues.

Jointly organised by the International Union of Anthropological and Ethnological Sciences (IUAES) and the World Council of Anthropological Associations (WCAA), the 2027 Congress will foster collaboration, interrogate disciplinary methodologies, and explore innovative paths toward global equity.
