Women’s Lives: Past, Present and Future

This one-day conference focusing on women’s lives is part of the University of Reading’s Centenary Celebrations. It will feature keynote speaker Professor Benedetta Cappellini (Durham University), academic paper sessions and an exhibition of zines produced at community engagement workshops held earlier in 2026. The conference will consider where the research agenda should go next, generating forward-oriented research plans and momentum.

Join us in person for an inspiring event exploring the journey of women through time. Dive into stories from the past, celebrate the present, and imagine the future of women’s lives. It’s a perfect chance to connect, learn, and be part of a powerful conversation. Don’t miss out on this meaningful experience!
