As a member of the Canadian Federation for the Humanities and Social Sciences (CFHSS), the Canadian Association of Slavists holds its annual conference in conjunction with the Federation's Congress of the Humanities and Social Sciences. This event is organized in partnership with a host Canadian University and usually takes place at the end of May / early June. Other learned societies comprising the CFHSS also attend the congress, turning the event into a unique opportunity for interdisciplinary dialogue and networking. The congress routinely holds a Book Fair, featuring many university presses and scholarly publishers.

This page provides the most recent Call for Papers, as well as a Panel Proposal form, an Individual Paper Proposal form, a Roundtable Proposal form and a Graduate Student Activities Proposal form (all downloadable). Be careful to note the deadline!

Here you will also find an application form for a Travel Grant (TBA) that covers in part travel costs to the congress from locations in Canada. Most members of the CAS in good standing are eligible. The deadline for submitting the application - TBA.
