The Student World Assembly International Convention is an annual event which brings together students, activists, and scholars from all over the world in a three-day whirlwind of workshops, lectures, panel discussions, and fun-filled activities. The Annual Convention culminates the year-round initiatives and efforts of SWA members and highlights a global issue that was selected by the General Membership in the fall of the previous year.

Every year the international convention is hosted by a different college or university. At the Convention, delegates will hear expert testimony on the selected issues. They then vote to adopt resolutions that determine the stance and action that the SWA will take for the upcoming year. All members are invited to attend the convention.
