Beyond Borders 2026: Registration Is Open!

Registration is now open for the Beyond Borders Conference 2026, a two-day virtual gathering designed to foster connection, collaboration, and learning across geographic and cultural boundaries.

When: October 8–9, 2026

This year’s program features a series of themed panel discussions that will explore some of the most pressing issues in global mental health, including:

  • Student Mental Health
  • Social Determinants of Mental Health
  • AI & Global Mental Health
  • Lived Experience
  • Workplace Mental Health
  • Migration
  • Mental Health Across the Lifespan

These sessions will highlight diverse perspectives, innovative research, and practical experiences from participants around the world.

Registration Fees: A registration fee of $30 for professionals and $10 for students will apply this year. (An additional fee of $15 will be charged for CEUs.)

We remain committed to making the conference accessible and encourage participants from less affluent countries to apply for a registration fee waiver. Information about the waiver process is available through the registration form.

If you have any questions, please email Flora Cohen (fcohen@illinois.edu) or Heidi Meyer (hrmeyer@illinois.edu).
