Improving European Universities. International Conference on Gender (In)equality in Academia
The University of Rzeszów and the Academic Network for Security and Equality – association of ombuds and other persons working to enhance diversity, equity, and inclusion in Polish academia – invites representatives from other universities and HEI institutions to discuss general issues related to building more inclusive and equal universities and particular issues related to GEP (gender equality plan) creation and implementation. Equality plans are changing European universities from within and contribute to creating a more welcoming, inclusive, and friendly environment for those who study and work in academia.
Call for papers: Speculative Futurities – Queer and Crip Interventions
This special issue of Lambda nordica invites contributions exploring queer and/or crip interventions in speculative technologies and narratives. Lambda nordica is a peer-reviewed open-access Nordic academic journal of LGBTQ studies. Topics may include AI, robotics, biotechnologies, Afrofuturism, queer/crip temporalities, and alternative imaginaries of futurity. Abstracts of 300–500 words are due by December 20, 2024. Full articles (6,000–8,000 words) will be invited for submission.
Call for papers: Would you like to contribute to a new Norwegian textbook on Gender Studies?
The editors of Doing Gender Studies, a new Norwegian-language textbook for Gender Studies under contract with Fagbokforlaget, are sending out a call for contributions to all researchers working in this field in Norway. The form of the book allows for shorter and longer contributions in a variety of formats. The editors have selected this novel form because they are hoping for a polyvocal volume with contributions from a range of researchers and educators working with gender and gender related themes in Norway.
Proposals due by: January 30, 2025.
