Following the annual conference in Tokyo, the organizers would like to announce that the 8th Pacific International Politics Conference (PIPC) will be held in Hawaii, the U.S., from July 9 to 10, 2026.
The University of Hawai'i at Hilo will host the conference. Hilo is located on the northeastern side of the island of Hawai`i (The Big Island). It is famous for two volcanoes, Kilauea (one of the world's most active volcanoes) and Maunaloa (the world's largest active subaerial volcano). The University of Hawai`i at Hilo was founded in 1945.
