Heritage sensitive conservation policies
Sacred Forests and Spiritual Landscapes in the Indo-Burma Biodiversity Hotspot and Southeast Asia’s Terrestrial Ecoregions
The symposium offers a space to discuss a state-of-the-art overview of heritage-sensitive policies related to sacred forests and spiritual landscapes, with a focus on forest conservation practices based on Indigenous ecological ways of knowing and relating to forests. The seminar will explore the concept of indigeneity as a decolonial relational approach to forest dwellers that overcomes the rigid, top-down definition of who are Indigenous People and Local Communities (IPLCs). The seminar highlights recent advancements in interdisciplinary research, decolonial methodologies, political ecology analysis and ethical approaches to the conservation of sacred natural sites and spiritual landscapes.

Qualitative research: developing a psychology of and for world making
In the context of contemporary crises, whether political, ecological, health, social or economic, the world is undergoing radical transformation. Qualitative research is capable of both describing and understanding these upheavals ; however, it also, to a greater or lesser extent, participates in the transformation of the world. The current crises, and the profound transformations they are bringing about, therefore invite psychology to fully embrace qualitative research “of and for world-making”. In other words, it is vital to fully develop the potential for change offered by qualitative research to help us live in a more just and equitable world.

Bringing together researchers from various disciplines, the research group “Essais de terminologie(s). Images, littérature, spiritualité” initiated at GEMCA in 2022, aims to collectively question our understadings of terms relating to the use of images and literature in the field of spirituality between the late Middle Ages and the early modern period.

Rather than framing this transformation solely as a rupture, the conference seeks to situate it within a longer history of computational rationality— a lineage in which the medium has continuously negotiated the demands of efficiency, scalability, and technical constraint. Our aim is to critically rethink comics not as passive recipients of technological change, but as active computational configurations: media fundamentally entangled with systems of automation, standardization, and information processing.

Mirages de Byzance dans l’art en France (1821–1931)
Mirages of Byzantium across the Arts in France (1821–1931)
De 1821, année du déclenchement de la guerre d’indépendance grecque, à laquelle la France prit une part active et qui contribua à la redécouverte d’un patrimoine grec médiéval encore méconnu, à 1931, date de la première exposition internationale d’art byzantin à Paris, l’intérêt pour Byzance en France ne cessa de s’intensifier. Dans le dynamique contexte actuel de la redécouverte historiographique de Byzance, de ses collections et des approches élaborées aux XIXe et XXe siècles, ce colloque se propose d’examiner la réception de Byzance à travers les productions artistiques et leurs processus créatifs.

We invite contributions that focus on the study of market research in the making, in various countries in Europe and elsewhere. The term ‘making’ should be understood here in both senses of the word (the emergence of the field in the 20th century, and the making, i.e. the day-to-day manufacturing of market research surveys). By focusing on the making of market research, we aim to shift the focus away from leading figures in the sector, to examine a more comprehensive range of individuals involved in conducting surveys at different stages. What was the division of labour, from fieldwork to report writing ?

Rethinking the Geography of Risk: Theories, Practices, and Interdisciplinary Perspectives
“Geographies of the Anthropocene” book series (Vol. 9, no. 1, 2026).
This volume of Geographies of the Anthropocene aims to explore and redefine the Geography of Risk, a field that investigates the relationships between natural hazards, environmental transformations, and social vulnerability. By integrating approaches from physical and human geography, the book will address how societies perceive, represent, and manage risks across diverse territorial, temporal, and cultural contexts. Contributions are invited from a wide range of disciplines — geography, environmental studies, sociology, urban and regional planning, economics, political science, psychology, and technology studies — to foster an interdisciplinary reflection on the theoretical, methodological, and practical dimensions of risk.

On both sides of the border: Muslims in Garb al-Andalus and Portugal during the Middle Ages
Hamsa: Journal of Judaic and Islamic Studies – Monographic issue, #12 (2026)
In recent years, there has been a resurgence of Islamic studies in Portuguese lands. Archaeological campaigns and documentation-based research have brought to light valueable information about the Andalusian occupation in this area and the Muslim permanence under Christian rule, both as slaves and as mouros forros. The aim of this monographic issue is to serve as a compilation and new impetus for this research into the Muslim presence in Portuguese lands, both under the sphere of Andalusian influence (Garb al-Andalus) and under Christian rule (Portugal).

The history and structure of gardens hold endless surprises and fascinating connections with other disciplines. Originally created as a natural but immutable place offering protection and shelter, gardens have evolved from the hortus conclusus to a place of fantastic architecture, celebrations and wonder. Despite the aesthetic development that was added to the symbolic one of the medieval tradition, the garden never completely lost its medicinal and practical function, featuring areas dedicated to fruit trees, greenhouses reserved for exotic crops or plants whose medicinal or dyeing properties were well known.

Conference, symposium - Early modern
From the Baltic Sea Region to the Iberian Peninsula
The Art at the time of Michel Sittow (c. 1469-1525)
The year 2025 marks the 500th anniversary of Michel Sittow’s death in his hometown of Reval (now Tallinn). Sittow’s life, career, and œuvre exemplify how, in the Late Medieval and Early Modern world, professional mobility was no less significant than it is today. The seminar aims to explore the international visual and political contexts surrounding Sittow in order to better understand his experiences within the artistic production and visual culture of late fifteenth- and early sixteenth-century Europe.

This international conference aims to explore the central role of culture and art in the reconstruction and regeneration of the social fabric, through a reinterpretation of trauma as a driver of creation and preservation of cultural memory and as a form of resistance to the politics of erasure. We encourage papers dealing with the interconnections between trauma, memory and resistance in multiple artistic languages to highlight the role of art in reinterpreting trauma, making it a source of memory and thus a basis for social change. The focus will be on the artistic production, especially during the 21st century, created by Palestinian artists about Palestine, including those in the diaspora.

Migration and the Making of a European Space
Since (at least) the early modern period, migration, flight, and displacement have been central to European history—not only as forces shaping local and regional environments but also as processes that help define the spatial, cultural, political, social, and intellectual limits of what “Europe” actually means. We invite papers that examine migration in and across Europe (broadly conceived) over the centuries and explore how movements of migrants and refugees have contributed to the making of Europe as a geographical, cultural, and political space.

A Field Guide to Dinosaur Parks Physical, Fictional, and for the Future
We invite submissions for Lands of the Lost: A Field Guide to Dinosaur Parks Physical, Fictional, and for the Future, an edited collection that explores extinct animal parks real, imagined, unrealized, or yet to be. Our goal is to bring together multi-disciplinary perspectives to examine parks across time and space, across fact and fiction. We seek to understand how these projects, which reconstitute and enclose long-extinct life forms, intersect with histories of science, capitalism, imperialism, environmental change, and more.
