SOAS Centre for Palestine Studies 10th annual graduate research seminar call for papers
Recognizing the urgency of the study of Palestine amidst the ongoing genocide—including the destruction of the Palestinian educational sector and a widespread campaign to suppress solidarity with Palestine—the Centre for Palestine Studies announces the call for papers for its 10th annual graduate research seminar, to be held on 6 June 2024 in hybrid format, at SOAS, University of London and online.
This research seminar provides a critical platform for PhD students and postdoctoral scholars working on Palestine or Palestine-related issues to present their projects, receive feedback, and engage others within a supportive environment. We welcome a broad range of topics, aiming at an interdisciplinary dialogue across Palestine Studies.
Panels will be organised around themes that emerge from the research submissions and will be assigned a discussant to respond. If you are interested in participating, please make a submission via the online form by 14 April 2024.
A complete application will include a proposed title, an abstract of maximum 200 words, along with a brief bio. In your submission, please specify whether you plan to participate in-person or online.
Centre members look forward to receiving your submissions and to our gathering in June.
