It will be the third time that an ICC is hosted in Canada, following ICC 1972 and ICC 1999, both of which took place in Ottawa. Vancouver is the largest city in Western Canada, where the fusion of urban sophistication, cultural richness, and natural beauty provides the perfect backdrop for a conference that inspires attendees to shape novel ideas for a future that leaves no one behind.\r\n\r\nThe 32nd ICC, which is centered on the theme Mapping the Future: Innovation, Inclusion, and Sustainability, will challenge attendees to envision a future in which maps and geospatial data are inclusive and can be trusted, even if some are generated by AI tools.\r\n\r\nPaper submissions are due December 2, 2024, and abstracts are due December 9, 2024. Papers should cover topics related to the International Cartographic Association\u2019s (ICA) commissions and working groups, which take on the art, science, and technology of cartography via topics such as map design, geospatial artificial intelligence (GeoAI), ethics, inclusive cartography, and the next generation of cartographers. The ICA also invites submissions on themes specific to the Canadian context, including decolonial maps, Indigenous mapmaking, and mapping the Arctic. The papers presented at the ICC are sure to elicit lively discussions in the sessions.\r\n\r\nMaps and cartographic products from around the world will be showcased in the ICC\u2019s International Cartographic Exhibition, along with finalists in the popular Barbara Petchenik Children\u2019s World Map Drawing Competition. Technical tours will allow delegates to experience firsthand how local organizations in Vancouver practice cartography and GIScience.\r\n\r\nThe ICA\u2019s numerous commissions\u2014which each focus on a specific topic in modern cartography, including art, geovisualizations, and marine and mountain cartography\u2014arrange preconference seminars and meet during the ICC to discuss their plans for research, workshops, and other collaborative initiatives. Some commissions organize fun activities related to maps, while some have more serious research presentations and discussions and others engage with local communities. Commission events are generally a great way to meet people and make friends in the cartographic community.\r\n\r\nAs a special ICC feature, anyone who accompanies a registrant for the conference, such as a friend, partner, or family member, receives complimentary entry to a technical session of their choice. That means that this friend or family member could go to your presentation and support you and your work.\r\n\r\nFor more information about the 32nd ICC, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/icc2025.com\/\">conference\u2019s website<\/a>.
