Dear all,
We have now finalized a programme for the Network Meeting in November. It will take place
in Malmö on the 24-25th of November. It is a joint meeting with the Nordic research
network Queen (QUeer rEfugees rEsearch Network). I will coordinate together with Thomas
Wimark, who is one of the coordinators of the QUEEN network (and also a member of the
LGBTQ+ network!).
Attached you find the programme. We will have two keynotes:
Roisin Ryan-Flood is Professor of Sociology and Director of the Centre for Intimate and
Sexual Citizenship (CISC) at the University of Essex. She has a longstanding interest in
feminist epistemology and methodology, as seen in for example Silence and Secrecy in the
Research Process: Feminist Reflections (2010) and Queering Methodology: Lessons and
Dilemmas from Lesbian Lives (2022).
Jenny Gunnarsson Payne is Professor of Ethnology at Södertörn University. Her research
investigates cultural, social and political aspects of gender, sexuality, reproduction and
kinship. She has published widely on issues of queer kinship, assisted reproduction and
anti-gender politics. She currently leads the project "Navigating anti-LGBTQ-politics
and homonationalism" on LGBTQ-migration from Russia and East Africa to Sweden.
We are very happy to welcome them, and are looking forward to discussions with you all.
This time, we will have paper presentations and several different sessions to choose from
as suggested by some of you. However, please feel welcome to join even if you are not
presenting!
It is possible to apply for travel and accommodation stipend if you are (or become) part
of the LGBTQ+-H-L network. Please note that the deadline for this application is October
12. You apply by filling out the registration form:

Deadline for registration (without application for stipend) is November 3, use the same

I hope to see many of you in Malmö!
Best,
Catrine
