Please note that members may submit only one paper proposal for the conference. You may, however, propose a paper as well as a session, which you would organize.

You may submit proposals on any relevant topic (e.g. specific women writers from across the French-speaking world, French or francophone women’s themes throughout the ages, literary and/or cinematographic techniques, feminist theoretical or cultural issues).

The organizers have also chosen two topics of focus for this WIF conference:
1) Women & Work
2) Franco-American Women of New England and Eastern Canada
