SWANA Con
Join us for the 5th Annual SWANA Con, hosted at UC Riverside on January 16–17, 2027. SWANA Con is an annual conference dedicated to Southwest Asian, Middle Eastern, and North African students. This year’s theme, Preserving Culture, Building Legacy, invites us to reflect on the cultures, histories, and traditions we carry forward and the legacies we hope to build together. Applications are FREE, and stay tuned for more information on how you can attend with UCSC’s Asian American/Pacific Islander Resource Center (AA/PIRC) to get travel and lodging fees taken care of! If you have any questions, please email [email protected]. Register for the conference here!
