Theme: Storytelling in an Age of Disruption
The theme for the AANZCA 2026 conference asks us to reflect on the centrality of stories, storytellers and storytelling in our current age, one typified by disturbance, unpredictability and uncertainty. From pandemics, platforms, and propagandistic plutocrats to climate change, culture wars, the capture of creativity by capitalist cabals, and the terrifying intensity of military conflicts and sectarian violence – we have grown accustomed to political and economic disruption as a norm.
