Dear colleagues,

I am very pleased to announce that the 6th International Conference for Carceral Geography will be held at Trier on the 15th and 16th of September 2026. The CfP invites papers exploring carcerality, borders and mobility - all themes that have long animated this interdisciplinary field. As many people on this list have experience in these as well as adjoining areas of research, I would like to encourage you to consider planning a session or handing in an abstract!

You can find the full call here: https://carceralgeographies.co.uk/carcerality-borders-and-mobility/ 

At a glance:
We invite empirical, theoretical and methodological papers from researchers at all career stages. We are inviting abstracts for individual papers and proposals for organised themed sessions as well as creative work inputs. 

Session Formats: Sessions will last 90 minutes and include the following formats:
●Paper sessions of four 15 minute presentations and Q&A.
●Panel sessions exploring a theoretical intervention, debate, monograph, or recent events. Workshops featuring interactive activities (such as creative methods), non-traditional session formats, film screenings, etc.
