We are excited to announce the 2024 Graduate Feminist Thinking Conference: Crossing. Featuring presentations from recent Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies graduates and experts in the field, we will discuss all that feminism is and can be. We will explore topics across disciplines and with attention to how research can cross over into non-academic applications. We hope you will join us for a day of invigorating discussion and connection.
It is organized by graduates of the 2022-2023 Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies programme in partnership with TORCH, The Oxford Research Centre for the Humanities
