Contribute

We’re building a programme that reflects the breadth and depth of insight across the ED world—and we’d love to hear from you.

You can propose:

  • A talk, presentation, or workshop
  • A creative piece (poetry, visual art, video, spoken word, reflection)
  • A panel, conversation, or dialogue across different perspectives
  • Something unexpected – we’re open to your ideas

We welcome:

  • Contributions from lived and/or professional experience.
  • Research that hasn’t yet reached wider audiences.
  • Reflections on practice and process—what works, what doesn’t.
  • Ideas that challenge the status quo, or work within it with care.
  • Honest stories about recovery, risk, identity, and uncertainty.
  • Knowledge learned by actually doing the work.
  • Brave thinking about recovery, harm, systems, identity, intersectionality, and access.

You don’t need to be a polished speaker.
You don’t need to have all the answers.
You don’t have to give a ‘typical’ presentation.
You just need something to say.

Submissions will be reviewed by me (Kel) and a representative from OnlineEvents

We’re aiming to build a programme that offers a genuine breadth of voices and experiences. In making selections, we’ll consider:

  • The focus and clarity of your proposal.
  • The type of perspective you bring (lived experience, professional, research, creative, community).
  • The overall balance of the programme – ensuring a mix of topics, identities, and formats.
  • How your contribution aligns with VOXED’s values: accessibility, inclusion, openness, and honest dialogue.

 

We know many people will have something valuable to share—and we won’t be able to include everyone this time.  But all submissions will be read with care and respect.

All contributors receive free access to the full event.

Submission deadline: June 23rd, 2025

Let’s Make This the Start of Something

I created VOXED because I couldn’t find a space like this.
So I decided to build it.

VOXED 2026 is the first big step.

Whether you’re attending, contributing, or just watching from the sidelines this time, I hope you’ll feel part of it.

This might just be a conference.
Or it might be the start of something more.
Either way, you’re invited.

Let’s see what we can grow – together.
