Call for papers
14-15 July 2022, Barcelona, Spain Commission on Gender and Geography 
International pre-Conference for the 100th International Geographical 
Union Congress

The aim of this pre-Conference is to provide a forum for the exchange of 
different knowledges, ideas and experiences in a variety of 
international contexts. We are interested in proposals that explore 
feminist and spatial perspectives of capitalist crises. Another relevant 
issue is what kind of feminist responses contribute to the recovery from 
these crises.

Suggested topics for papers include, but are not restricted to, the 
following:
-Geopolitical crisis and gendered perspectives on crisis and recovery
-Environmental crisis, climate justice and feminist political ecology
-Post pandemic economic crisis, employment and restructuring
-Austerity, inequality and pandemics in public health systems
-Gender, housing crisis, mobilities and right to the city
-Welfare, reproduction and social care
-Education inequalities in crisis and recovery
-Migration and refugee justice
-Reading landscapes of austerity and crisis
-Implications of social and physical distance for livelihoods and care
-Social movements and feminist resistances
-Gendered aspects of access and use of communication technologies and 
social media platforms
-Feminist solidarities, intergenerational relations and knowledge exchanges

The Conference is designed to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas 
and networking between geographers and other researchers interested in 
Gender and Geography. With this in mind, the key theme is designed as a 
starting point to stimulate debate and discussion from feminist, 
intersectional and critical geographical research perspectives.

Abstracts should be 200 words maximum and include up to five key words. 
Please also identify all authors’ affiliation(s) and email addresses. We 
invite paper submissions in English. Please send your abstracts 
proposals to gendergeo2022 at gmail.com by January 31, 2022. We look 
forward to reading your abstracts for a successful Conference. Please 
feel free to share this message with colleagues. More information and
