Shared parenting conference comes to Scotland & UK for first time | Glasgow 2027

Shared Parenting Scotland is proud to welcome the International Council on Shared Parenting to Glasgow for its 2027 conference.

The theme will be “Children’s Rights and Shared Parenting”.

The biannual ICSP conferences bring together academic researchers, practitioners, policymakers, legal professionals, family justice campaign groups and parents to share insight and experience of families and parenting around the world.

Over three days, delegates will explore how family justice systems can better uphold children’s rights and support a meaningful relationship with both parents, and their wider family.

This will be the 8th ICSP international conference and the first to be hosted anywhere across the UK. The conference creates space for discussion, collaboration and practical learning, showcasing academic research and connecting with real-world experience from families, services, courts, governments and civil society.

Further details, including a call for papers, programme information and delegate registration, will be announced in due course.

We’ve been really pleased with the amount of interest that has already been shown from multiple continents, including sponsors and paper submissions. If you’d like to be involved, please fill out the relevant form below.
