CVSL Conference 2026 - In person

Join us at this year’s annual conference as we celebrate the 10th anniversary of The Open University Business School’s Centre for Voluntary Sector Leadership (CVSL). Together we’ll reflect on a decade of impact and look ahead to the next ten years, featuring insights and reflections from former CVSL directors.

The conference will be held in person at The Open University in Milton Keynes. To join us in person, please use this registration page.

For those who cannot attend in person, we are opening up the presentations from the keynote speaker and former Directors of CVSL to online attendees and there will be an opportunity to contribute online to the Centre’s future direction. To join us online via MS Teams please use the online attendee page to register.

CVSL expects a broad audience, including practitioners, researchers, leadership consultants, philanthropic organisations' representatives, policymakers, academics and curious people looking for ideas on solving societal challenges they are passionate about.

Agenda to be confirmed.

Refreshments will be provided. The event is free to attend, however places are limited so registration is essential. We look forward to welcoming you to the event.
