Families in Global Transition is a community of globally mobile individuals, families and those who support them. Our goal is to provide everyone who is on the move with the tools they need to thrive by creating opportunities for personal, professional and academic connection. |
FIGT is thrilled to share information about its April 2026 Virtual Forum: Talking Across Divides: Communicating Through Differences! The biennial event brings together thought leaders, practitioners, researchers, and community members to explore critical issues impacting globally mobile families and professionals. The 2026 Forum will center on bridging divides and communicating through the many divisions in today's world, which we - as globally mobile families and individuals - are regularly travelling across, through or confronted about.
If you wish to play an important role in this impactful event, please consider submitting a proposal (RFP) to present your work as it relates to the 2026 Forum theme.
Applications are due 31 October 2025 and must be submitted using the Typeform found HERE.
Please direct questions about the event and the submission of RFPs to forum@figt.org.
