The Federation for the Humanities and Social Sciences is the driving force behind the Congress of the Humanities and Social Sciences, which is Canada's largest academic gathering and one of the largest in the world. Bringing together scholarly associations, this annual event provides a platform for critical conversations, diverse voices, and the sharing of findings and ideas that shape the Canada of tomorrow. At Congress, attendees can engage in inspiring presentations, panels, workshops, and cultural events hosted by partner universities and participating associations.

With a history spanning over 90 years, the Federation is dedicated to creating an equitable, diverse, inclusive, and decolonized space for all community members. As the brand behind Congress, the Federation also offers a range of valuable services and resources. These include scholarly book awards, funding and awards programs, initiatives for equity, diversity, and inclusion, and advocacy for policy development and research impact.
