About this Event
To tell the many and varied stories of our past we need many and varied storytellers in the present. He Rau Ringa e Oti ai: Many Hands Make History celebrates the many different people, organisations, modes, topics and approaches of history-telling in Aotearoa. The conference aims to foster connections across our history community.
He Rau Ringa e Oti ai is open to presentations from all history and art history practitioners from graduate students to independent and public scholars, from community groups and organisations, the GLAM sector, schools and the academy. We welcome submissions, especially panels, from those researching other areas of the world.
How can I participate?
We welcome presentation formats including individual papers (20 minutes + 10 minutes discussion), panels (3 connected papers), roundtable discussions (usually 1.5 hours) and a wide range of creative and alternative formats (such as walking tours, performances, and hands-on activities).
