12-13 April 2024, Oxford
The 'Women and Worlds of Learning' conference is dedicated to the promotion of PGR and ECR research. We are running a poster competition to allow PGR students and ECRs to share their work. Posters should be related to the theme of the conference regarding the different experiences of women in intellectual spheres and how these roles have developed over time. Applications for Masters and final-year undergraduate students are also welcome.
Topics may include (but are not limited to):
- Types of female engagement with higher education (as students, teachers, researchers, employees, patrons)
- Female spaces and opportunities in education
- Feminist approaches and analysis within higher education
- Trans, gender nonconforming and BIPOC experiences in academia
- Women within intellectual networks/communities outside of universities
- The roles of women in relationto different academic disciplines
Posters will be on display throughout the conference, and prior to the conference dinner, there will be time dedicated to the poster competition where delegates can engage with PGR students and ECRs. Participants will be required to give a short presentation of their poster (5 minutes), and will be judged on the combination of the physical poster and presentation. Posters will be A2 sized and printed by the conference committee.
Deadline: Friday 1 March 2024
Submissions of 250 word abstracts should be sent to womenandworldsoflearninggmail.com. Successful applicants will be notified by 8 March and will be expected to submit thier posters for printing by 29 March.
