CALL FOR ABSTRACTS: Critical Feminist Histories in Canada
A three-day conference on October 2, 3, and 4, 2026, at Queen’s University (Kingston, ON) called Critical Feminist Histories in Canada. Our goal is to bring together feminist scholars to reimagine, revitalize, and reinvent the project of ‘feminist history.’
The conference is hosted by the Canadian Committee on Women’s and Gender History (CCWGH), and we are committed to making this gathering an opportunity to welcome and support scholars whose work has too often been marginalized and silenced within Canadian women’s and gender history and beyond.
Keynotes include: Susan Stryker, historian, theorist, filmmaker, and activist and Ethel Tungohan, the Canada Research Chair in Canadian Migration Policy
Plenary sessions: (1) Trans Histories; (2) Histories of Reproductive Justice; and (3) Feminist Histories for the Future
Please submit via email to cfhconference2026@gmail.com. The submission deadline is April 10, 2026. Applicants will be notified by early May 2026.
Please send inquiries to the Critical Feminist Histories organizers (Lisa Pasolli, Patrizia Gentile, Kristine Alexander, and Samantha Nicholls) at cfhconference2026@gmail.com
