Lova, the Netherlands Association for Feminist Anthropology and Gender Studies

Our Lova Network aims to foster a community of feminist anthropologists and gender studies scholars and practitioners both within and outside of academia.

 

It is our mission to promote feminist anthropology and ethnographic gender studies and to communicate new theoretical insights to a broad audience within universities and other relevant institutions and organisations.

We organize working groups and events, we publish a journal and blogs, and we share information about events and vacancies via our Lova Mail Service and on our social media. Search this website for finding out what we do.
