The plight of refugees and the impact of migration currently excites much popular and political interest. Yet these movements are not new and there are long, albeit neglected histories of migration, forced migration and exile.

The Women’s History Network welcomes individual papers or panels from academics, postgraduate students and independent scholars. We encourage submissions on a wide range of topics related to refugees, migration or exile in any place or period. All papers should have an historical perspective and should relate to women’s history and/or make use of gendered analysis.

Abstracts of no more than 300 words should be sent to
