Welcome to the 5^th International Conference on Gender and Sexuality 2022, which will be held on the 13^th and 14^th of October 2022. The International Conference on Gender and Sexuality provides participants with an enriching opportunity to deepen knowledge of the field as well as its theoretical, policy, and personal dimensions globally, engaging with intersecting fields and the many disciplines that comprise Gender and Sexuality – all towards building collaborative partnerships, providing publishing opportunities, and enacting visions of a more equitable world. We hope that Gender Studies 2022 will bring together diverse research and case studies from around the world in parallel sessions, while also providing numerous networking and publishing opportunities.
