About this conference
Join us in Orlando, Florida for the NAFSA 2026 Annual Conference & Expo held May 26 - 29. The theme "Global by Design" invites us to move using thoughtful planning, bold innovation, storytelling and advocacy, and sustained action. Explore how to design the future of our field with purpose, creativity, and imagination. Together, we’ll examine how forward-thinking strategies, cutting-edge approaches, and creative partnerships can amplify our impact and expand meaningful global experiences. This way, we can build a global education landscape that is not only responsive, but visionary — in other words, Global by Design.
