Graubünden forscht 2026

The next conference "Graubünden forscht" takes place at the Congress Centre Davos on November 6 an 7, 2026.

Academia Raetica is the association dedicated to promoting science, research, and education in the canton of Graubünden and the surrounding regions.

On November 6 and 7, 2026, Academia Raetica will host the conference “Graubünden forscht” at the Congress Center Davos for the tenth time. The conference offers early-career researchers a unique platform to present their work, exchange ideas across disciplines, and become part of a vibrant research community rooted in Graubünden and the Alpine region.

“Graubünden forscht” particularly invites PhD candidates, postdoctoral researchers, and Master’s students to submit abstracts for oral presentations. Contributions are welcome if the research was conducted in Graubünden, addresses topics related to the region or engages with questions relevant to the Alpine context. Submissions from early-career researchers at universities in neighboring regions are also encouraged, provided there is a clear thematic link to Graubünden or the Alps.

With its strong transdisciplinary focus, the conference encourages young researchers to look beyond disciplinary boundaries, explore new perspectives, and engage in dialogue with scholars from other fields. At the same time, it provides an opportunity to present research to a broader audience, gain visibility beyond one’s own discipline, and receive feedback from both academic peers and interested members of the public.
