Highlights

This keynote by Mona Lena Krook asks how feminist politics and political science can respond to anti-gender attacks around the world – protecting hard-won gains while advancing a bold, inclusive vision for gender equality.

Join us on Monday evening for the ECPG Welcome Reception at Newcastle Civic Centre – an informal chance to meet fellow participants, reconnect with colleagues, and raise a glass to the start of the conference

Yes! It's during the parallel sessions, but we promise this is the only parallel session where the presenter's pace is entirely up to you! The pace will be relaxed and no one gets left behind, making this a great chance to chat, get to know other participants, and see a bit of Newcastle before the rest of the day's programme. To register or if you have questions, please contact Maarja at Maarja.luhiste@ncl.ac.uk.

This keynote roundtable invites critical feminist responses to the rise of illiberalism amid multiple crises – social, economic, political - all with profoundly intersectional gendered effects.

Join us for the Dance Party at the atmospheric Boiler Shop. With street food, music, and space to unwind, this is a great opportunity to catch up with colleagues and celebrate the ECPG community in the heart of Newcastle.
