The 5th Annual QCA Conference of the Americas (AQCA2026) will be held March 18-20, 2026 at the University of Cincinnati, USA. See https://compasss.org/aqca/ for the call for proposals, registration process, conference program, and complete details.

The QCA Conference of the Americas (AQCA) provides a venue for the broad, cross-disciplinary community of researchers and practitioners working with configurational-comparative methods and approaches to gather together to present and receive feedback on current research projects, share theoretical and methodological developments, and discuss new directions in configurational-comparative research practices. Bringing together the diverse set of QCA empirical and methodological researchers, AQCA offers a supportive environment for the community to meet, engage in dialogue, network, learn, and collectively move forward on advancing the configurational-comparative perspective.
