When you present at the EKO Spring Symposium 2027, you contribute to a robust program designed to inspire multi-disciplinary and cross-sectoral responses to address burgeoning developmental health challenges and identify evidence-based opportunities to hone or introduce so kids with disabilities and developmental needs and their families live their best lives.

You’ll reach and engage sector leaders, clinicians, policymakers, allied health professionals, researchers, students, and people with living experience—an audience not found anywhere else in the country.

There are two ways to share your work:

  1. The EKO Spring Symposium 2027 includes 30 concurrent session presentations throughout both days of the in-person program. Sessions are presented in a variety of formats designed to facilitate the exchange of ideas and information, adding value for presenters and their audiences.
  2. The Poster Presentation is a Don’t Miss Event at the EKO Spring Symposium 2027. With designated times in the event program, delegates are free to walk the poster hall, speak with presenters, learn from a large selection of poster content, and vote for the EKO Spring Symposium People’s Choice Poster award.

We are inviting abstract submissions for concurrent session and poster presentations at the in-person event in Toronto on April 27 & 28. Browse these pages to learn more about positioning your submission for success, tips on presenting an impactful session and/or poster, how to submit your work, and more. 

Key Dates

Abstract submission deadline: October 9, 2026
Submit the Best Abstract Possible—a webinar hosted by EKO: September 10 from 2:00 - 2:45 p.m.
