About the event
On the 23rd of May 2025, the 26th Cemeteries Colloquium will take place as a live meeting from 08:45 to 17:15 (GMT) in the Church Lane Building on the University of York’s West campus.
The Colloquium, organized by the Cemetery Research Group (CRG), has developed into an essential forum for the discussion of new and emerging cemetery scholarship and is multi-disciplinary, accepting papers from across the humanities and social sciences. The event has a strong emphasis on discussion, and its international and interdisciplinary nature makes the meeting particularly thought-provoking.
