Call For Proposals | VizChitra 2026

If data is the new soil, we’re excited to see what you will grow at VizChitra 2026.

We’re looking for proposals for talks, dialogues, and workshop sessions that explore how data visualization is designed, used, and felt in the world around. Whether you are a beginner experimenting with your first charts or a seasoned practitioner running complex projects, there is space for you here.

We welcome submissions from designers, developers, artists, educators, journalists, researchers, policy practitioners, and anyone using data to tell stories, ask questions, or serve communities.

VizChitra 2026 invites you to share how you think, play, and build through data viz!

This year’s conference centres on four key themes:

🤝🏽 Visualizations for Community 🎨 Visualizations as Craft 💼 Visualizations at Work 🎛️ Visualizations and Tools

Before submitting your proposal, we encourage you to review the detailed outline of each theme on our website, along with the conference formats. You can also check out last year's conference lineup for inspiration and ideas.
