The event strives to foster exchange on the (historic) genealogies and (future) potentialities of bringing queer-feminist and STS ambitions together, to contribute to citing (and sighting) queer-feminist STS in the Swiss context, and to nurture connections within the (inter)national community of queer-feminist STS scholars and beyond.

To do so, the symposium features three moderated dialogues that each bring two scholars from queer-feminist STS into an exchange, complemented by multilateral discussions and time for open exchange. On the podium we welcome: Nolwenn Bühler (Lausanne, CH), Nina Lykke (Linköping, SWE), Sigrid Schmitz (Berlin, D), Mariacristina Sciannamblo (Rome, IT), Banu Subramaniam (Wellesley, USA), and Jutta Weber (Paderborn, D).
