history of the seminar
Since 2009, the seminar has sought to expand and challenge perspectives in transnational and global history. In the past, we have explored topics such as gender in transnational contexts and race in pedagogy and higher education.
Currently, our aim is to provide a platform for graduate students and academics who are early career, precarious or from the Global South. Past events and conveners can be found on our archive page.
seminar policies
TGHS has an evolving, multidimensional approach to challenging power disparities and inequalities which pervade many academic environments. We maintain a collaborative environment, both in-person and on-line, that respects differences and discourse while simultaneously protecting participants and organisers from harassment, bullying and discrimination. As a student-led organisation, we believe accountability and equitable practices that maintain everybody’s dignity, safety and wellbeing are essential to creating a hospitable and healthy community.
