The scientific programme for the 9th International Conference on Self-Determination Theory (SDT 2026) is now online.

With hundreds of presentations from researchers and practitioners around the world, SDT 2026 will showcase the latest advances in Self-Determination Theory across education, health, work, sport, parenting, technology, public policy, and many other domains.

Participants can now explore the programme, discover keynote presentations, symposia, oral sessions, rapid-fire presentations, poster sessions, and open forums, and begin planning their conference experience in Geneva.

We encourage all presenters to review the programme and verify that their name, presentation title, and session information are correctly displayed.
