We invite 250 word abstracts for 20-minute presentations on any topic, geographical period, chronological time, or theme related to the history of women in the Americas. We also welcome comparative papers between two countries in the Americas or one in the Americas and a country outside the region.
The conference welcomes papers from scholars at any stage of their career, especially graduate students.
The keynote lecture will be delivered by Dr Kate Dossett (University of Leeds).
