OBON Annual Meeting 2026

The 2026 OBON Annual Meeting will be hosted by Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University in Dhaka, Bangladesh, from 30 November to 4 December 2026.

To help us with planning, we ask OBON project representatives to please complete the registration form as soon as possible: https://forms.gle/YViXwnK3KNSnQ6Fn6. The form will remain open until 30 October 2026.

We expect to share the draft agenda in early October, but in the meantime, we would appreciate receiving your registration and travel support information as early as possible.

Looking ahead

As a new addition this year, the registration form also includes an opportunity to express interest in hosting a future OBON Annual Meeting. To help the community plan further ahead and secure dates earlier in organisational calendars, we are beginning discussions around potential hosts for the 2027 and 2028 Annual Meetings.

If your organisation may be interested in hosting, we encourage you to indicate this in the form. Interested organisations will have the opportunity to present their proposal during the Annual Meeting, after which nominations will be considered through the OBON election process.

We are looking forward to welcoming you to Dhaka and bringing the community together for what promises to be an exciting and productive meeting.
