To whom it may concern,
I am writing you on behalf of the Queer and Feminist Studies Working Group at the
European University Institute in Florence, Italy, to share with you the call for papers for our upcoming International Conference, and would be very thankful it if you could pass this information along through your institution and contacts!
The conference QUEER FRAGMENTS: BREAKING, REPARING, TRANSFORMING, which will take place from June 4th-6th 2026 in Florence, but in hybrid format. (See the attached Call for Papers for all the information).
It is organized in collaboration with Queer Budapest (Hungary), Queer, Trans, Intersex Studies Collective (France), and
Politesse(Italy), making this into an international joyful and enraged call to action that aims to bring together people from different backgrounds and professions to collectively think and act from our queer fragments.
We encourage contributions advancing novel and diverse perspectives and adopting interdisciplinary approaches. We welcome queer ideas and practices challenging disciplines and fields, pushing them to their limits, (de) (re)constructing them. We invite submissions
not only from scholars, but also from
practitioners, activists,
workers, artists,
performers, journalists, and
thinkers. We particularly encourage submissions from those who have yet to present their work at conferences and/or belong to
underrepresented regions, institutions, and/or groups.
Please send a PDF document including an
abstract
(up to 350 words) or a
poster (combining visuals and up to 300 words), a brief
biography (max 100 words), and your
language preferences (including English, our main working language, and possible additional languages) to:
Que...@eui.eu by
9 January 2025. Please be mindful to include the words “Queer Fragments Conference CfP” in the subject of your email. Participants will receive a notification of acceptance by
16 February 2025.
All the best,
