About this Event

The Annual Conference & AGM of the Natural Sciences Collections Association (NatSCA) will be held on Thursday 14th and Friday 15th May 2026 at The Ulster Museum in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

Collaborating and Connecting with Natural History

Natural history collections are involved in a huge range of work that creates partnerships and fosters collaborations – this is a conference to share these stories. The NatSCA 2026 conference invites proposals for presentations looking at impact: how we work in partnership, including for example, with our community partners, NGOs, industry or communities of origin; how our work is making a difference; how we generate enthusiasm; and how we advocate for collections in a rapidly changing world. We are also interested in learning how our community can reconnect and recharge in the modern world.
