Welcome to a seminar for discussing research applications!
Every application will be assigned a main reader and we will have a week to read applications before the seminar.
Please let me know that you intend to participate by accepting this meeting (before Jan 5).
Please send me your application and some notes on what you want help with on Jan 8 at the latest.
I will prepare a reading list and send it out on Jan 9 where everyone can focus on one application, while looking over as many as you have time for in addition.
Looking forward to seeing you!
Kiin

Dear all,
And thank you to all of you who came to Malmö and made it such an interesting and fun two days! I heard from several people that the vibes were so good - love that!
Below I include notes from the network meeting which we held on the last day which concern among other things publication plans and other plans for the future.
I will soon also send out invitations for the mentioned meetings!
Please let me know if you have any suggestions for network activities or questions, and I hope to see you on Zoom!
Kiin
Notes from Network meeting with LGBTQ+-H-L network
Malmö Nov 25th, 2025
Information
We started off with some good news about research funding for network members Ylva Moberg, Charlotta Carlström and Michael Nebeling Petersen! Congratulations!
Next, Jukka Lehtonen told us a little bit about a two-day conference Enhancing Nordic collaboration on public data gathering on LGBTI+ people in Nordic countries, that the Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare (THL) och Nordic Council of Ministers arranged during the fall. There will be a report published eventually and Jukka will send it out on the email list.
Email list
We discussed using the email list more actively to share new publications, conferences and calls – Kiin will send out a reminder about this and an invitation to share recent publications!
If we manage to use it more we can consider making a basic newsletter to gather information, but right now we don’t need that.
Publications
There is currently work being done to initiate an edited book on LGBTQ+ youth and professionals related to school environments of different kinds – contact Lee Hildebrand and Jack Lukkerz if you want more information about this: lee.a.hildebrand(a)gmail.com<mailto:lee.a.hildebrand@gmail.com>; jack.lukkerz(a)mau.se<mailto:jack.lukkerz@mau.se>
Considering the theme of this network meeting it might be interesting for one of us to guest edit a Special Collection for International Journal of Qualitative Methods, there is a call on that out.
Ella Ben Hagai highlighted that the Journal of Lesbian Studies was interested in a special issue on Nordic queer culture in some way. Kiin Catrine Andersson and Amanda Klysing will work on a proposal for a call and see where that takes us.
Róisín Ryan Flood is editor for Sexualities and that they are always interested in suggestions for special issues.
Thomas Wimark also mentioned that the journal of Gender, Place & Culture were interested in manuscripts using quantitative methods, relating to place in some way – very broadly.
Plans for the spring
We agreed that we want to continue with the joint writing time via Zoom and Kiin will send out invitations for this.
We also wanted to do a seminar on applications in January where we read each others applications and give suggestions. Kiin will coordinate this and send out an invite.
Plans for next network meeting
Next network meeting will be at Tampere University, Finland! Joa Hiitola will be the local contact person for this, and arrange it together with the coordination group. If you want to participate in the coordination group (we are mostly Swedes right now and others are very welcome) you can email Kiin.
One possible theme we discussed was Public engagement, but in order to include NGOs and professionals we would need to do a bigger conference format with a public call. We will look into applying for funding and possibly doing this in 2027.
The theme for the network meeting 2026 will be very broad: Creating new spaces – for collaborations, new studies, theoretical development and public engagement, which we hope will be good basis for developing a conference for the year after.
We will include space at the network meeting to discuss disciplinary issues and institutional challenges as this was something we all struggled with.
More information on the network meeting will follow.
