Women of Photography: A 24-Hour Conference-a-thon Celebrating International Women’s Day 2025

In celebration of International Women’s Day, March 8, 2025, we invite scholars, practitioners, and enthusiasts to submit abstracts for participation in a free, online, global, 24-hour symposium dedicated to celebrating the contributions of women to the medium of photography from photography’s announcement in 1839 to contemporary practitioners in 2024. This unique event aims to highlight the diverse and impactful work of women photographers, and those working with photography, across many different cultures and time zones.

The talks, speakers, and UTC times are listed below. Links provide detailed abstracts, speakers’ locations, academic/professional affiliations, and a brief biography.

All sessions were free to attend and were held over Zoom.
