Call for Papers for the 14th State-wide Day of Gender Research
For the 14th time, gender researchers, project partners and interested parties will gather on 20 November 2025 for the state-wide Gender Research Day at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg.
The day is located at the intersection of gender, democracy and participation research and is dedicated to the question of how feminist perspectives can contribute to strengthening democratic structures and combating anti-democratic tendencies.
We would like to call for submissions - especially from academics, artists and designers in qualification phases - as well as network projects and initiatives and create a place for exchange and discussion and therefore call for submissions on the topic ‘Strengthening democracy. Feminist perspectives on gender, politics and society’.
Please send submissions by 1st of August 2025 to: info@kgc-sachsen-anhalt.de
We look forward to interesting submissions and an exciting exchange!

Duration: approx. 20-30 minutes
Allowance for expenses: €10
Possible locations: University of Halle-Wittenberg, Max Planck Institute Leipzig, University of Magdeburg
Fancy taking part? Then please register here → https://umfrage.uni-halle.de/151145?lang=de
Details:
Who we are: This research project is being carried out by the University of Magdeburg in cooperation with the University of Halle-Wittenberg. I am Selma (she/her), a student of speech science, and I am working on this project as part of my bachelor's thesis.
What it's about: We are investigating how Artificial Intelligence (AI) - in particular voice assistants such as Alexa or Siri - can recognise, process and anonymise voices of people from the LGBTQIA+ community. The purpose of voice anonymisation is to protect against identification algorithms and thus against queer-hostile violence and discrimination.
In addition, I, Selma, will acoustically analyse voice and speech characteristics of people who identify as gender nonconforming (e.g. non-binary, agender, genderfluid, genderqueer, bigender).
For both, we need speech and voice material from people in the LGBTQIA+ community.
How it works: You read something aloud, describe pictures and we talk about food, hobbies or similar.
Fancy taking part? Then register using the QR code or the following link so that we can find a date: https://umfrage.uni-halle.de/151145?lang=de
Still questions or unsure? Just send me an email: selma.neubauer@student.uni-halle.de.
Thank you very much for your support! I'm looking forward to working with you! 💜
Best regards, Selma
