The 2026 PAA Applied Demography Conference offers a unique opportunity to bring together ideas, data, and people. This conference is to share work, strengthen professional networks, and showcase how population data are used to inform real-world decisions.
This virtual conference will take place February 10–12, 2026, and is designed to fit into busy schedules. Sessions will be held in the afternoons, allowing participants to engage deeply without taking up their entire day. See the schedule.
The conference welcomes participation from anyone whose work intersects with population studies—across academia, government, non-profit organizations, and the private sector, and at all career stages. If your work involves counting or characterizing populations, or generating or using population data to inform policy, programs, or planning, this conference is for you. View the full program.
Whether you’re looking to learn from peers, share applied work, or connect with others in the field, the Applied Demography Conference offers a focused, inclusive space to engage with timely issues and practical applications of population research.
