The Eradicate Hate Global Summit is seeking proposals for breakout sessions, working groups, and special events for its September 15-17, 2026, gathering in Pittsburgh.
Organizers are requesting submissions by March 20, 2026, with decisions expected by mid-May. The summit, established following the 2018 Tree of Life Synagogue massacre that killed 11 worshippers, convenes researchers, policymakers and survivors to develop strategies against hate-fueled violence.
The 2026 event will focus on “Bridging the Gaps,” addressing identified shortcomings in violence prevention efforts. Summit planners said they are particularly interested in proposals featuring cross-sector partnerships, international viewpoints and solutions applicable to multiple forms of targeted violence.
“We especially encourage partners to submit joint proposals in the spirit of cross-sector collaboration,” organizers stated in the announcement. Proposals may include contrasting perspectives on prevention strategies.
Accepted proposals must demonstrate collaboration across sectors and include international and multiple organizational perspectives. Summit organizers noted they may modify or combine approved sessions and extend speaking invitations to some applicants whose formal proposals are not selected.
Selected speakers will receive complimentary conference registration and hotel accommodations.
