Organising Committee

Ethos

Furry Studies has been designed to build connections between those researching furries, providing an inclusive trans-disciplinary research and publishing space. The conference will be a hybrid event with online modes of participation, to allow for proceedings to be as accessible as possible.

The official language of the conference, in which all submissions and eventual contributions are expected to be presented, is in English this year.
