Activism, Change and Feminist Futures: At the Intersection of the Personal and Political, is a two-day joint conference from: The LEX NetworkViolence Against Women and Girls Research Network (VAWGRN), Feminist Legal Research and Action Network (FRAN), and the Centre for the Study of Emotion and Law (CSEL).  

Date: 5 - 6 November 2026

Location: School of Law and Social Justice Building, University of Liverpool

The feminist slogan ‘the personal is the political’ was key to second wave feminism, as a rallying cry which emphasised the dynamic and reciprocal relationship between issues experienced as personal and those traditionally constructed as political. 

This conference explores how we as feminists can take these foundational ideas forward in authentic ways to carve new ways forward against increasingly contested political backdrops.  Emphasising the value of responses grounded in lived experiences of intersectional oppressions and inequalities, this conference also provides a space to interrogate, as well as celebrate, feminist networks and the support they give in providing space to develop these grassroots concepts which are so central to feminist research and activism.
