Scarlet Alliance National Forum 2026 Session Proposals

Dates: Tuesday 17th to Thursday 19th November 2026

Location: Tarndanya/Adelaide, Kaurna Country

Scarlet Alliance invites sex workers to submit their session proposals for the 2026 National Forum. We are looking for sessions that highlight peer knowledge, skills, creativity, and collective organising. We want sessions that are useful, practical, and meaningful for everyone attending—reflecting the many different voices, identities, and experiences across our community.

Submissions should be about sharing something with the room. We aren't seeking consultation sessions or requests for feedback on a specific project or service. If your session touches on sensitive topics, please ensure you have a plan to keep people safe, supported, and respected.

We welcome everything from workshops and panels to storytelling, advocacy, research, creative work, and practical skill-sharing.

Submissions for session proposals close at 11:59pm, 19th July 2026.

To help everyone feel prepared, we ask all successful applicants to attend a 'Presenter 101' session, even if you've presented at a National Forum in the past. We will cover forum logistics, technical support, and helpful tips on presenting to a peer audience.

I agree to attend the 'Presenter 101' session if my proposal is successful.
