OCIES 2025 Annual Conference: “Education, Knowledge and Power in the Asia-Pacific”
23–26 November 2025, Aotearoa New Zealand
The Oceania Comparative and International Education Society (OCIES) warmly invites scholars, educators, practitioners, and community thinkers and leaders to join us in Ōtautahi Christchurch for our 53rd Annual Conference.
With this year’s theme “Education, Knowledge and Power in the Asia-Pacific” we invite critical reflection and research on the shifting dynamics of education and power in a region marked by cultural richness, geopolitical complexity, and urgent calls for justice, sustainability, and transformation.
As we gather on the lands of Ngāi Tuahuriri, we honour indigenous knowledge systems and relational ways of being that challenge dominant paradigms of education and research. We invite contributions that engage with the following subthemes.
Abstracts
Abstracts (300–400 words) should indicate the format and subtheme(s) addressed. Submit your abstract by Monday 1 September 2025 via our online portal on the website.
