CFP: Transitions and Transformations in Gender Equality | June 24-26, 2016

NUI Galway will host the 25th IAFFE Annual Conference in 2016 with the conference theme “Transitions and Transformations in Gender Equality”.  IAFFE invites scholars and activists of feminist inquiry to reflect on “movements” in gender equality in the broadest sense of the term. The theme opens itself up to both theoretical and political advances in feminist thinking and practice, expanding the concept of intersectionality to capture transitions and transformations as well as tensions and challenges across socio-economics regimes, generations, institutions and borders.  Read more on the IAFFE website.

Abstracts must be submitted online via the IAFFE website beginning in January 2016. Submissions can be made for roundtables, panels or individual papers. Participants are limited to one paper presentation and one roundtable or appearance on a panel. Additional co-authored papers are allowed only if they are presented by the co-author. These limitations will allow maximum participation by all members wishing to participate.  The deadline for submissions is 4 April 2016. Notification of acceptance will begin on 15 March 2016.
