BC Archaeology Forum 2025
Saturday, October 18, 2025
Location: ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV, Saywell Hall 10081
Co-hosted by ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV Archaeology & BCAPA
The Department of Archaeology at ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV, in partnership with the British Columbia Association of Professional Archaeologists, is pleased to announce the return of the BC Archaeology Forum this fall. The forum will be held on Saturday, October 18, at ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV's Burnaby Campus, the day after the ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV archaeology student societies' paleo-Olympics event. It is our hope that you may be able to attend both events.
The Archaeology forum will feature two to three keynote speakers (soon to be announced) as well as brief, lightening-round style talks from a variety of perspectives from those engaged in archaeological research in BC. Talks will be centered on the forum's intertwined themes of 'collaboration' and 'innovation'. We invite you to present to the audience on projects you have been involved with that feature success through collaboration as well as innovative methods or techniques that could be used to benefit broader archaeological work in British Columbia.
We look forward to seeing you in October!
