Welcome to The 2025 Hub Convening
October 20-22, 2025
Charleston, South Carolina
Beneath the centuries-old branches of Charleston’s Angel Oak, we gather in the spirit of shared wisdom and collective renewal— honoring the roots that hold us and the imagination that allows us to reach towards new horizons.
From October 20–22, 2025, a diverse network of scholars, practitioners, advocates, editors, and social activists will gather in Charleston, South Carolina for The 2025 Hub Convening.
This three-day gathering brings together a collaborative community dedicated to strengthening collective action and shifting the culture and practices of academic publishing toward greater inclusivity, equity, and justice.
Through dialogue, site visits, ideological experimentation, and decolonial dreaming, we will explore how the health science knowledge ecosystem can evolve to more fully embody these values.
Together, we’ll learn from institutions that preserve Black history, share strategies for transforming knowledge systems, draw on collective wisdom, and imagine futures where scholarship truly reflects and uplifts the diverse communities it is meant to serve.
