InterForensics, the largest Forensic Science event in Latin America, and one of the most significant worldwide, will take place from August 25 to 28, 2025, in Curitiba, Paraná. Over four days, professionals from criminal investigation, scientific research, the legal field, and industry will engage in a dynamic program focused on knowledge sharing and innovation.

The opening day, August 25, is dedicated exclusively to optional mini-courses, offering in-depth training opportunities. From August 26 to 28, the main program will feature thematic conferences across 17 specialized areas of Forensic Science.

The event will bring together leading organizations, experts, and companies for a robust agenda of networking, debates, lectures, exhibitions, and research presentations, fostering meaningful connections and advancing the future of forensic science.

Over the years, MAFS has grown to include participants from all over the U.S. and even some from outside the U.S.; however, the original goal of the organization has not changed.  Annual fall meetings and spring workshops are held to provide opportunities for scientists to advance their expertise and share their knowledge with others.  A visiting scientist program is available to aid laboratories with specific training needs.  University students are encouraged to join the organization and present relevant research that may impact the field.  

The Rocky Mountain Division of the International Association for Identification is a non-profit organization chartered in 1967 to provide the Colorado-New Mexico-Wyoming area quality educational and professional development opportunities for both experienced and incoming professionals in the field of forensic sciences. The RMDIAI also works in collaboration with the parent organization and other chartered divisions to provide its members access to diverse forensic topics and perspectives.

The Optical & Digital Document Security (ODDS) Conference is a leading forum that unites the physical and digital document security communities. Originating from the well-established Optical Document Security Conference and its digital counterpart, this combined event reflects the growing convergence of physical documents and digital identity systems. ODDS brings together experts in banknotes, ID documents, digital transactions, and identity verification to share insights, foster collaboration, and explore innovations in secure document design and authentication.

The Asian Forensic Sciences Network (AFSN) serves as a vital platform for forensic science institutes across Asia to collaborate, share expertise, and address key challenges in the field. AFSN is dedicated to enhancing the quality and consistency of forensic services through expert working groups, specialized training, collaborative research, proficiency testing, and support for accreditation. By building strategic connections with similar global networks, AFSN promotes the advancement of forensic science and plays a central role in shaping regional strategies and solutions tailored to the unique needs of Asia.

The ENFSI Scene of Crime event is a leading forum for professionals involved in the crucial first step of forensic science; crime scene investigation. Organised by the ENFSI Scene of Crime Working Group, the event emphasises the vital role of the crime scene in the broader context of forensic science, criminal investigation, and the administration of justice. Recognising that "crime scene" encompasses not only physical locations but also the collection and interpretation of evidence from suspects and victims, the event embraces a comprehensive and inclusive approach. With participation reflecting the diverse interests of police, forensic experts, and law enforcement agencies, the ENFSI Scene of Crime event offers a unique platform to share expertise, explore new techniques, and strengthen collaboration across borders to advance the effectiveness and integrity of crime scene examination.

The European Paint, Glass & Taggants Working Group (EPGTWG), formerly known as the European Paint & Glass Working Group, was established in 1995 and brings together over 40 forensic science agencies from 26 European countries, with additional collaboration from the RCMP (Canada) and the FBI (USA). The group focuses on enhancing forensic practices related to paint, glass, adhesive tapes, and security dyes. Its key objectives include maintaining critical forensic databases such as EUCAP and adhesive tape collections, delivering specialised training, raising awareness of trace evidence, and promoting best practices, quality standards, and collaborative research across the forensic community.

Chartered in 1964, the Minnesota Division of the International Association for Identification (MNIAI) holds an annual educational conference devoted to continuing education for the forensic sciences, crime scene investigation and identification fields. Typically held in the fall, the conference is two-three days long.
