About Shifting Tides
The Shifting Tides History Conference is an annual graduate history conference organized this year by SFU History in collaboration with the History Departments at the University of Victoria, the University of Northern British Columbia, and the University of British Columbia. The conference has emerged as an interdisciplinary forum where graduate and senior undergraduate students in History and related fields present their research to colleagues from other institutions across the Pacific Northwest and North America.
Shifting Tides 2026 was hosted by SFU History at our Harbour Centre Campus (SFU Vancouver) from January 31st to February 1st, 2026. The conference program is available for download here. Thank you to everyone who participated!
