Registration is now open for the Autumn School Invisible Injustices: Combating Structural and Systemic Violence (26–30 October 2026), as well as the call for abstracts for the International Research Seminar Invisible Injustices: Interdisciplinary Dialogues through an Intersectional Lens (30 October 2026), hosted by Universitat Rovira i Virgili in Tarragona, Spain.

This Autumn School aims to create a collaborative and interdisciplinary space for early-career researchers interested in exploring and critically engaging with research on structural and systemic violence affecting particularly vulnerable groups. The programme welcomes participants from a wide range of academic backgrounds, including Law, Anthropology, Sociology, Political Science, Gender Studies, History, Philosophy, and other related interdisciplinary fields.

As part of the programme, the Autumn School will host the International Research Seminar Invisible Injustices: Interdisciplinary Dialogues through an Intersectional Lens, providing participants with the opportunity to present and discuss ongoing research projects within an interdisciplinary and critical academic environment.

We warmly encourage colleagues to share this opportunity within their institutions and networks, and to invite interested researchers to register and submit abstracts.
