The FISU Forum is a biennial event held in various cities around the world. The Forum provides an opportunity for students and university sport senior staff/leaders to come together to discuss education, culture and university sport. The Forum features workshops, conference style dialogues, and presentations by delegates. Both cultural and sporting excursions are included throughout the Forum as well.  

With the ongoing global coronavirus pandemic having led to the cancellation of most major events worldwide, the next edition of the 2020 FISU Forum will take place online, rather than onsite, from 12-14 August 2020.
