The Oxford Women’s Leadership Symposium will convene virtually this year. While we treasure our time together in person, public health directives, travel restrictions, and safety concerns preclude meeting in person. But, we thrive when we share our ideas - and in moments where we are apart, the strength of ideas is more important than ever.
We will meet as scheduled from 7 – 9 December. We plan a forum with collegial and informal interactions and will provide a user-friendly platform with support and coaching so that everyone is comfortable.
We hope you will join us virtually in Oxford!
We are updating our website with new information. In the meantime, don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
You are invited to give a talk on an aspect of women's studies, or you may wish to attend as an observer or panel member. We also welcome poster proposals. If you would like to present a paper, submit a brief abstract for review by the Programme Committee. Papers presented will be subsequently peer-reviewed by external readers for possible inclusion in Symposium books or as sponsored journal articles.
