(Not Very Far) Away Day 2024
Are you interested in research and teaching on gender and feminism? Then join us for the 2024 (Not Very Far) Away Day of the Centre for the Study of Women and Gender!
The CSWG (Not Very Far) Away Day (NVFAD) provides an opportunity for scholars and students interested in gender and feminism from across the University of Warwick to meet and find out about each other's research. It is an informal space which aims to strengthen connections across departments, energise those of us doing feminist and queer research, and generate new ideas for future CSWG initiatives.
After very successful NVFADs, for example, in 2007, 2008, 2010 and 2016, we are delighted to announce that the NVFAD is returning in 2024! It will be taking place on
- Thursday, June 13th, 2024
- from 10.30 - 3.00 (including lunch)
- on campus (room to be confirmed)
The NVFAD is open to all staff and students at Warwick, from across all faculties and services within the University.
It will include a discussion session on the current state and future directions of research and teaching on gender at Warwick, a poster exhibition, a publications fair and a networking lunch.
If you can’t be with us for the full duration of the NVFAD, it’s fine to join only for some of the sessions. The programme will be shared with registered participants nearer the time.
If you are interested, you will have the chance during the NVFAD to exhibit a poster presenting your research or to bring copies of your publications for the publications fair. Both are optional; they are not a requirement of participation. You will find some guidelines and poster templates here.

The NVFAD will be followed (from 3.00 to 5.00) by a talk by Prof. Karen Throsby (University of Leeds) entitled "The (In)Visible Inequalities of the Attack on Sugar".
You will need to register for this talk separately – you can do so by clicking here.
