Our annual Unconference this year welcomed nearly 100 attendees and featured a dozen remarkable presenters, making the second annual event a resounding success. This year marked a significant milestone as we hosted the Unconference in a hybrid format for the first time to reach a broader audience. A massive thank you goes out to our incredible panelists, presenters, CoNNECT volunteers, as well as the invaluable support from the ECT department, the ALT staff, Campus Media team, and Steinhardt Alumni Affairs, for making this event possible.

This year’s Unconference and CoNNECT were spotlighted in an NYU Steinhardt News article, showcasing the incredible efforts behind these events. Give it a read to hear more about the amazing work that’s being done!

We also extend our deepest gratitude to all the attendees who joined us, both in-person and virtually, for making the event vibrant and engaging with your energy and insights.

For those who couldn’t attend, or for anyone who wants to revisit the sessions, here are the recordings. These recordings will be viewable until December 15th, 2024.
