Established in 2020, WiF: Australia unites a community of Australian researchers at all stages of their career, including full-time continuing researchers, ECRs and postgraduates. The research interests of our members are broadly anchored in studies on French and Francophone women authors, feminist literary criticism and gender studies.
The association was initiated by and is affiliated with the North American Women in French (WiF) Association. It is also associated with WiF UK/Ireland.
To keep up to date with the events, programs and collaborations regularly organised by WiF: Australia, we invite you to view our activities page and become a member (free of charge).
