The 2025 丁香成人社区 World Congress Program is divided into the following tracks. Presentations are held in-person in either of 丁香成人社区's official languages: English and French. Presentations in Local Organizing Committee (LOC) tracks may be held in Korean. In order to promote greater inclusivity and enrich our academic discussions, 丁香成人社区 introduced a new policy for the World Congress that allows participants in closed panels to present in another language, provided that all panel members agree. Note that only one other language (other than English, French or Korean in the case of LOC panels) should be used in the closed panel and not multiple languages.
Note that all proposal submissions must be in English or French with the exception of the LOC panels which may be submitted in Korean.
