"Following a review of international travel conditions and visa accessibility for participants, a decision has reluctantly been reached to relocate the 2026 BIEN Congress from University of Pennsylvania, USA, to Toronto Metropolitan University Toronto, Canada."

To provide a bit more context here, since 1986, UBI academics + advocates from all over the world go to the annual BIEN Congress that's hosted in a different country each year. Last year, it was in Brazil, and the year before that S. Korea. This year was to be the FIRST EVER US-hosted BIEN Congress.

@scottsantens Do not be reluctant nor sad. As a person who has their spawn point in the US, I agree and understand why this decision was made. The US should be avoided at all cost.
