Twenty-Fourth International Conference on New Directions in the Humanities, NOVA School of Social Sciences and Humanities, Lisbon, Portugal, 1-3 July 2026
Founded in 2003, the New Directions in the Humanities Research Network is brought together by a common interest in established traditions in the humanities while at the same time developing innovative practices and setting a renewed agenda for their future. We seek to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries.
