The National Social Science Congress (NSSC) is the flagship program of the Philippine Social Science Council (PSSC), serving as a premier platform for interdisciplinary dialogue and collaboration among social scientists, policymakers, and researchers. Held every two years, the NSSC showcases cutting-edge research, fosters knowledge exchange, and addresses pressing national and global issues through the lens of Philippine social sciences. It brings together scholars and practitioners to share insights, propose solutions, and advance evidence-based policies that contribute to national development.
