The 17th International Society for Ethnology and Folklore (SIEF) congress will take place at the University of Aberdeen in Aberdeen, Scotland, UK 3–6 June 2025. The theme for SIEF2025 is Unwriting. SIEF2025 invites ethnologists, folklorists, anthropologists, and scholars from adjacent fields to do some unwriting: redo, seek or restore social justice, dismantle hegemonic frameworks which limit us to predetermined paths towards predictable conclusions.

This will be a hybrid event, so delegates will be able to participate either virtually or in person. Call for panels, roundtables, workshops and combined formats is open until 7 October 2024.
