The theme for the 2016 conference is “Building Big History: Research and Teaching.” The conference seeks to present the latest and the best in Big History research and teaching, while creating a forum for the articulation and discussion of questions that are central to Big History. Among the topics that are to be addressed at the conference through a series of panels, roundtables, and discussions, are: Approaches to Big History; Big History research agenda; Scholarship contributing to Big History; Big History teaching at universities, secondary, and primary schools: achievements and challenges; Little Big Histories; Reactions to Big History. We encourage proposals along these lines on any topic related to Big History.
