Water Archives – The Archives Gazette No. 280 – deadline (abstract) by 13 November 2026
Calenda advert 1 440 986 (excerpts)
Archival material relating to the theme of water – understood here in its continental dimension, encompassing both surface water (rivers, lakes, marshes, glaciers, etc.) and groundwater (aquifers) – constitutes a distinct category that defies the traditional logic of classifying archives by producer. Instead, it brings together documents from very different contexts of creation, dealing with the representation, management and use of water throughout the ages.

Investigating gender and working with gender. An interdisciplinary discussion – Hybrid seminar from 8 October 2026 to 8 April 2026 – Maison des Sciences Humaines Alpes (UGA), Gières (38610)
Calenda announcement 1 437685 (excerpts)
This interdisciplinary seminar aims not only to showcase the breadth and richness of gender research, but also to examine the methods, conditions and tools of inquiry. In what ways can gender serve as an operational tool that opens up new fields and new research practices, rather than merely being an additional thematic focus for existing fields and practices? Using which sources and methodological approaches can we then examine it and put it to work, without taking its meaning for granted once and for all?
