New Frontiers is an excellent opportunity for both MA and PhD students to present papers to colleagues from across Canada and the United States. We will be accepting papers on any geographic location and on a wide range of themes and topics. Please see the attached CFP for further details.

We are delighted to welcome Dr. Rhonda Hinther as this year’s keynote speaker. Dr Hinther will be delivering a talk entitled: ‘On Paper, Screen and Exhibition: Combining Public History and Academic Practise to Interpret the Past’. With her experience in both academia and museums (including the former Canadian Museum of Civilization and the Canadian Museum for Human Rights), Dr. Hinther’s keynote is sure to be engaging and informative!
