POWS regularly holds a three-day Annual Conference which covers a wide range of issues including: gender, mental health, women’s health, feminist theory, masculinity, sexualities, qualitative methodologies, disability, ethnicity, and racism. Contributions include papers, symposia, posters and workshops. This is an excellent opportunity for students to present their work for the first time in a supportive and friendly environment.
