WORLD CONFERENCE ON WOMEN’S STUDIES’21
Welcome to the 7th World Conference on Women’s Studies (WCWS 2021) hosted by the Asian-African Association for Women, Gender, and Sexuality (AAAWGS). Women’s Studies as an interdisciplinary field is undergirded by bodies of feminist thought, which in turn have shaped many academic disciplines and policy initiatives as we strive for gender and sexual equality in homes, in the workplace, and in government. The WCWS 2021 takes up the challenge to understand our differences and to work across them, listening and learning from one another, discussing, debating, and moving to which are ard the goals of equality, equity, and sustainability on this planet that we inhabit together. We hope the WCWS 2021 unites diverse researches and case studies from all over the world, in parallel sessions while offering many networking and publishing opportunities.

PUBLISHelp
-A breakthrough Free TIIKM project to make your research publication possible-
Why
—-
In recent times we, TIIKM and the AAAWGS were able to identify that the major reason for many academic papers being rejected from high standard journals is due to lack of knowledge and improper guidance on scientific writing. PUBLISHelp is designed to help authors who need help in improving their academic writing. We believe we can reduce the number of rejections and increase the possibility of acceptances with the aid of PUBLISHelp.
How
—-
We have appointed a world-class “Scientific Steering Committee” to help authors to develop their full papers prior to the conference. Before sending the paper to a journal, the papers will be reviewed and guidance will be provided to revise by a world-class reviewing committee.
To Whom
—-
This project is designed to help researchers/authors who aspire to develop their full papers up to the standards of high quality academic journals.
How to enroll
—-
This program is free for all the conference paid participants**. Please click here for more details and registrations.
