Chevening Conference 2026

Chevening Conference is the opportunity for scholars to come together to network, present their own research and hear from guest speakers. It’s our flagship academic event and this year is hosted Loughborough University at their London campus.

What’s on this year

For Chevening Conference this year, we’ll be exploring the theme ‘Chevening Futures: Intellectual Leadership for Global Good’.

Chevening scholars across the UK will share how they can drive positive impact and inspire change at global, national and local levels. It promises to be a day full of networking, knowledge-sharing, and exchanging of ideas!

Soon, we’ll be sharing how to sign up to attend with Chevening scholars, through the Scholargram newsletter.

When can I sign up?
