The Research Network in Spatially Integrated Social Science holds a bi-annual National Conference.

Highlights of the National Conference are:

• plenary sessions for the keynote speakers

• sessions for the Network’s Paradigm Forums and Application Area to meet, review the projects or develop their activity agendas
• services for Research Higher Degree Students to meet with Established Senior Researchers and present programs on their research.
