We are proud to announce the 13th Triennial Conference of the Southern Association for Women Historians (SAWH), a four-day summit dedicated to exploring the complexities, triumphs, and tenacity of women’s lived experiences.

​

This year’s theme—“Unspeakable Challenges”— centers the obstacles faced by women, particularly those of color, as they navigate the intersecting roles of professionals, caretakers, scholars, and community builders.

​

Held in partnership with the Mary McLeod Bethune Institute for the Study of Women and Girls, the 2025 meeting offers a space for reflection, resistance, and renewal. Expect thought-provoking panels, transformative plenaries, tours of the Mary McLeod Bethune Home, and meaningful moments of connection under the Florida sun.
