The second European Conference on Politics and Gender (ECPG) will be held in Budapest, 13-15 January 2011. This follows on the enormous success of the first ECPG in Belfast 2009, which saw more than 300 scholars converge for three days of panels, plenaries and socialising.

The event stimulated the ever-expanding gender and politics community in Europe and beyond, and we hope to keep building on that momentum.

The conference website will be available shortly, and will contain full information about abstract and panel proposal deadlines, registration, keynote speakers, and so on. But in the meantime, we wanted to let you know about the ten sections so you can begin thinking about your submission and planning your trip. Below is the list of sections and section chairs, so you can get a quick overview of the conference, followed by the section descriptions which contain more detail.
