This year, due to Covid-19, the Society decided to postpone the annual conference - Identity and Transformation: Studying Lives in Times of Social Change. It is now scheduled to take place between 20th - 22nd September 2021 (with pre-conference workshops on the 19th) at The Panorama Hotel in Vilnius, Lithuania. Many of this year's accepted abstracts will make up next year's conference programme, and these are featured in the abstract book to the right. Click on it to take a look...
