Decentering Modernity

 

SSHA 2026 will be held at the Hilton Hotel, Atlanta, Georgia

 

How do I apply for a Richard Sutch Student Travel Grant to help pay the cost? Starting in April 15th, 2026, a link to apply for one of SSHA’s competitive student travel grants will be available at https://ssha.org/conference/sutch-travel-awards/

NOTE: In order to facilitate valuable discussion of new research, the SSHA conference is an in-person only event, and there will be no ability to participate virtually (via Zoom or otherwise). If you are submitting to present at the conference, it is expected that you will attend and participate in person. We recognize that not everyone can participate in person, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
