Call for Bids to host the 12th European Feminist Research Conference in 2025

Every three years, ATGENDER organises together with a partner institution the big European Feminist Research Conference (EFRC), which represents one of the major opportunities for feminist, queer and gender studies scholars, activists, artists and policy makers to gather and exchange experiences.

Should you be interested in organising the EFRC in 2025 we would like you to briefly respond to the questions below when you send us your expression of interest. 

Please send us your reply to info@atgender.eu no later than June 10, 2022. We are also happy to answer any questions you may have.
