Australian Communication Theory Workshop 2026

Welcome to AusCTW2026.

We are proud to be bringing AusCTW to Christchurch in 2026, hosted by Wireless Research Centre at the University of Canterbury on behalf of the New Zealand communication theory community. This will the 23rd edition, the second time in Christchurch, and the third time in New Zealand.

There are numerous ways you can participate:

Attend AusCTW 2026

Registration is now open!

Submit an abstract for a technical talk or poster presentation

The programme is starting to take shape, but there are still slots for more technical talks (20mins) & posters.

A good conference at its heart needs great technical content, to stimulate engagement between participants. The nature of AusCTW is to present emerging and contemporary topics, including 'work in progress'. Papers are not peer reviewed and published in proceedings. Students in particular are encouraged to submit abstracts for poster presentations.

Posters will be organised into poster sessions, and delegates will be encouraged to grab a coffee and discuss your work informally with you over your poster.

Submissions now open: Call for Papers.

$ponsorship!

It also takes money to run a successful conference. If you can assist with sponsorship (your company, or you have contacts that the organising committee can approach), we'd love to hear from you!
