The theme for the 2025 ACAL Conference is "Inclusion, Empowerment, Employment: Literacies for a Dynamic Future". The conference will be held on 4 to 5 September 2025 in Melbourne and will explore the vital role of literacy in shaping a more inclusive society, empowering individuals, and opening doors to meaningful and lasting employment opportunities.
