22 dynamic, inspiring speakers from across the Texas Woman's University community gathered together in February 2026 to share their impactful stories and innovative ideas that relate to the theme of Resilience. This year’s experience also featured presentations, performances, and activities with campus and community partners that are committed to the spread of ideas and have a stake in how we talk about Resilience and how to foster it in our communities.
