Membership

Membership of the Gender and Feminist Geographies Research Group is open to anyone with an interest in feminist and gender-focused geographical research.

We welcome members at all career stages and from a wide range of geographical contexts.

Why join?

Members are part of a supportive research community and receive updates about events, opportunities, prizes, grants, and conference activities supported by the GFGRG.

Joining the Group

If you are a member of the RGS-IBG

If you are a member of the Royal Geographial Society (with IBG), you can join GFGRG by selecting the Group when completing or updating your Research Group membership via the RGS-IBG website.

If you are not a member of the RGS-IBG

You do not need to be a member of the RGS-IBG to engage with the Group. Those who are not members of the Society are encouraged to make an annual donation to support the work of GFGRG.

The suggested donation is £5 per year, although this can be less if it would cause hardship. Members of the RGS-IBG are also welcome to make donations to support the Group’s activities.

If you would like to make a donation, please contact the Treasurer for details:

Treasurer: Negar Elodie Behzadi
Email: negar-elodie.behzadi@bristol.ac.uk

All donations are used to support the activities of the Group, including events, prizes, and grants.

Membership records and contact details

  • For RGS-IBG members, Research Group membership information is automatically shared with the GFGRG Membership Secretary.
  • If you change your email address, we recommend updating your Jiscmail subscription to ensure you continue to receive communications.

For those not affiliated with the RGS-IBG, details will be shared with the Membership Secretary following a donation. If you wish to join but have not made a donation, please contact the Membership Secretary directly.

Mailing list

We encourage all those interested in the work of GFGRG to join our Jiscmail mailing list, which is used to share information about events, opportunities, and activities. Membership of the mailing list does not automatically constitute formal membership of the Group, but many members choose to be part of both.
