ISQOLS 2026 Tentative Schedule (subject to change)
The parallel sessions and conference presenter schedule will be available by mid-June. The conference topic tracks explore a wide range of perspectives on quality of life, happiness, and well-being across cultures, regions, and populations. They include historical and cultural approaches to well-being; global, regional, and community well-being indicators; methodological and disciplinary research; applied studies and public policy; and emerging approaches that move beyond GDP to measure human progress. Additional tracks focus on philanthropy, volunteerism, spatial mobility, community quality-of-life outcomes, and culture-based development in the Semitic world. Special sessions (see below) also examine the relationship between artificial intelligence, aesthetics, and well-being, alongside invitation-only discussions hosted by EHERO/GLO and the World Happiness Report. Posters and miscellaneous topics provide opportunities for broader interdisciplinary engagement and innovative research contributions.
