Topic Proposals

We invite you to view the 2027 topic proposals in the Public History Commons space here. Topic proposals are optional draft proposals submitted by people who are looking for feedback on the general idea, seeking co-participants to fill out a session, or otherwise hoping to strengthen their proposals. Your feedback will help those who submitted draft proposals make valuable connections and refine their proposals in time for the final proposal deadline of June 15.

Some guidance on leaving feedback for topic proposals:

• General feedback can be left as a comment on the proposal.
• Very specific or negative feedback, or the names/email addresses of possible connections other than yourself, should be emailed to the proposer via the contact email at the bottom of their proposal.
• You are welcome to leave your own name and email for the proposer to reach out to you if you are comfortable leaving your email on a public page.
