The conference will take place on 9th and 10th February 2023 at the Faculty of Arts, Comenius University Bratislava (Gondova Street 2, Slovakia).

In 2023, we will commemorate the 30th anniversary of the dissolution of Czechoslovakia and the establishment of two independent states: the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic. We, therefore, welcome especially (but not exclusively) interdisciplinary papers reflecting theoretical, methodological, ethical, or practical aspects of oral history qualitative research in the context of research of borders – in all possible meanings of this word. The conference will take place under the auspices of the Dean of the Faculty of Arts at Comenius University, Professor Marián Zouhar.

The deadline for proposals is on the 1st of December 2022 via an online form: https://1url.cz/@coha2023.
