Western Association of Women Historians (Web)

Time: 24.-26.04.2025
Venue: Costa Mesa, California
Proposals by: 30.09.2024

The Program Committee of the Western Association of Women Historians in the US considers these sorts of sessions:

Traditional Panels
themed panels with 3-4 presenters, a chairperson, and commenter
preference will be given to fully formed panels
graduate students are welcome but panels formed entirely of students are discouraged — WAWH encourages interested students to use panel formation as an opportunity to network with and include more advanced scholars.

Roundtables
4-5 participants + chairperson
present, discuss, and interact with the audience on a single topic, theme, or issue

Workshops
an interactive & practical deep-dive into a subject
proposals should include explanation of the topic to be workshopped as well as the interactive component(s)
topics may include but are not limited to: publishing, activist organizing, public history, pedagogy, non-academic careers, social media for writers. Get creative!

Novelties
Do you have an innovative, out-of-the-box idea for a session? Pitch it!

Individual Papers
Preference will be given to complete panels but individual papers will be placed on panels if space and relevancy permits.
Before submitting an individual paper, try networking through the WAWH collaboration spreadsheet. Your future fellow panelists might be looking for you!

Graduate Student Posters
research-based poster presented by someone enrolled in an accredited postbaccalaureate program
all posters accepted for display will be automatically entered into the Mary Elizabeth “Betsy” Perry Graduate Student Conference Poster Prize contest.
