🍏 Call for Abstracts | An Educated Industry Shaping Tomorrow’s Canopy
Whether you have new research to share, a successful project or case study, practical lessons from the field, or an idea that could challenge and inspire the industry, we would like to hear from you.
Arboriculture Australia invites arborists, researchers, educators, utility vegetation management professionals, industry leaders and other specialists to submit an abstract for the 2027 Arboriculture Australia Conference (18 - 20 April 2027 | Perth WA).
The 2027 theme is An Educated Industry Shaping Tomorrow’s Canopy. This theme recognises that the future of Australia’s trees depends on the knowledge, skills and professionalism of the people who manage them. Better education leads to better decisions and healthier trees, safer communities and more resilient urban forests.
The two-day speaker program will feature a general arb stream alongside a dedicated UAAA Stream, and we welcome practical, technical, research-based and thought-provoking presentations exploring:
• how we build and share arboricultural knowledge
• education, training and workforce development
• lifting professional and operational standards
• research, innovation and emerging technologies
• utility arboriculture and vegetation management
• climate resilience, biosecurity and urban development pressures
• engaging and educating clients, communities and decision-makers
• preparing our profession for the challenges facing tomorrow’s trees
Abstract submissions close: 31 October 2026
