Building on the energy, insights and connections created at SysPrac25 and the Systems Thinking, Systems Practice Conference at the University of Hull, we are delighted to announce the next step in our journey to learn, connect and act together as a systems practice community.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗷𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝘂𝗲𝘀

As the challenges facing organisations, communities and society become increasingly interconnected and complex, the need for practical systems thinking has never been greater.

SysPrac26 will bring together practitioners, leaders, researchers, educators, students, apprentices and those new to systems thinking alongside experienced systems professionals. Whether you are taking your first steps in the field or have been practising for many years, you will find a welcoming and inclusive environment where every perspective is valued and everyone has something to contribute.

Over two days, participants will have opportunities to:

🔹 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻

Explore ideas, methods and real-world applications of systems thinking through accessible sessions, practical examples and engaging conversations. Learn from experienced practitioners and fresh voices alike, and discover insights that you can apply directly in your own context.

🔹 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁

Meet like-minded people who share a passion for making a positive difference. Grow your network, exchange experiences, build new collaborations and develop your confidence as a systems practitioner. One of the things people valued most about SysPrac25 was simply having the opportunity to come together with others who understand the challenges and opportunities of working with complexity.

🔹 𝗔𝗰𝘁

Turn learning into impact. Discover approaches, tools and practices that help move from insight to action, enabling more resilient, adaptive and effective responses to complex challenges. Leave with ideas, connections and renewed confidence to strengthen your own practice.

Those who attended previous events often spoke about how energising it was to spend time with such a supportive and generous community. SysPrac26 aims to build on that spirit—creating a space where people feel welcome, encouraged, challenged and inspired.

SysPrac26 is more than a conference. It is part of an ongoing journey to strengthen systems thinking in practice, grow our community and increase our collective capacity to create positive change.
