Weaving Knowledges Through Languages, Cultures, and Literatures
The FHIS Graduate Student Symposium serves as a platform where graduate students at various stages of their program come together to share their work, exchange ideas, and build connections across linguistic and cultural boundaries.
The title of this year’s symposium, “Weaving Knowledges Through Languages, Cultures, and Literatures,” reflects a core conviction: that knowledge is not produced in isolation, but woven together through the encounter of languages, traditions, and perspectives. The symposium values the cross-disciplinary energy that emerges when these fields are brought into conversation.
Presentations will be delivered in English, French and Spanish.
