MUSEA - focus issue: women in research/university heritage and collections

According to the University of Graz’s annual topic we are planning to publish a special focus in our journal MUSEA: dedicated to women having a special role linked to university heritage and collections.

We would like to highlight the role of women as pioneers for specific heritage related aspects in universities even in the past or today. These can be women having a relevant role in collecting or recent exhibition projects dedicated to the topic.

The papers should make sure that a recent perspective is given and that the papers present innovative ideas. Needless to say that they should be linked to the current state-of-the-art research and literature.

As we publish open access, including pictures and graphics is highly recommended. You can publish your paper in English or in German.

If you are not sure if your idea is proper for publication in our journal, please get in touch with us, we are looking forward answering your questions: musea@uni-graz.at

We look forward receiving your papers for peer-review by mid October 2026.
