For #migcitsky folks - consider submitting to @epssnet.bsky.social and the migration section led by the ever-capable @kristinabsimonsen.bsky.social and @aalrababah.bsky.social

Really important PSA: it currently looks like there may be both an EPSS and an EPSA conference next summer. Please make sure people in your networks understand this distinction (see thread below).

Some clarification on next year‘s EPSS conference in Belfast - not-for-profit, the place to be, and lots of fun! Join us! Call for papers here:

Alongside @psaepop.bsky.social , EPSA is the best conference I've been to. And that's due to the people, and the people deserve that their fees go back to improving their work. Unlike the last 6 or so years, I'll not be at EPSA, but instead EPSS. Even though I love Prague.

Please share this thread. It is important that political scientists, in Europe and across the world, understand why EPSS exists and why we are encouraging people to attend our inaugural conference, in Belfast next June.

Andy Eggers (@aeggers.bsky.social) and I are co-chairing the Political Methodology section for EPSS 2026 in Belfast. Please submit a paper, full panel proposals, or suggestions for alternative formats (such as roundtables and lightning rounds). ➡️ epssnet.org/belfast-2026... @epssnet.bsky.social

Participating in a for-profit conference (EPSA) can be problematic in the context of German academia, as it may be interpreted as commissioning a service without a proper public tender... joining #EPSS makes it easy to avoid trouble!

Please read and share with your communities. 💌

EPSA have announced that they will hold a conference in July 2026. 😵‍💫 We understand that there might be some confusion about EPSS and EPSA. 👉🏽 So we thought we would clarify some things. A short 🧵

I can't wait to see #Belfast and support an academic non-profit environment. #EPSS

Feels like a good time to share this call for papers. Can't wait for EPSS 2026!

Time to learn about politics in other countries… Anyone need a co-author who brings little to the table?!

You can already submit your paper and panel proposal for EPSS next year. Looking forward to seeing many people in Belfast. I will be there.
