Gender and Power
Place: London/online
London Centre for Interdisciplinary Research invitest to an international conference on gender studies: Gender and Power.
The conference aims to investigate the interconnections between gender and power across diverse contexts and disciplines. As gender continues to shape individual identities, social structures and cultural narratives, this conference seeks to explore its impact on the full scope of human affairs – past, present and future. The conference will address key questions such as: How does gender intersect with power in different societal domains? In what ways does gender contribute to or challenge structures of inequality?
This conference is addressed to academics, researchers, professionals, and activists who are interested in engaging with the complexities of gender and power. Contributions are welcome from a wide range of disciplines, including but not limited to history, sociology, political science, anthropology, cultural studies, education, literature, psychology, philosophy, law, and public health.
Deadline for proposals are 5 December 2026. From the list of suggested topics for papers:
- Gender equality and the pursuit of social justice
- Gender and human rights: progress, challenges and gaps
- The role of gender in shaping educational access and experiences
- Gender and intersectionality: race, class, ability and more
