The last conference took place on the African continent. Past conferences have taken place in north America or Europe. Our international conferences have grown over the past years and now welcome up to 300 gesture researchers working in diverse academic and creative disciplines. Our society offers support to graduate students and young researchers as well as scholars from under-resourced universities/countries to attend the conferences. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e40adbe2279656a2d505ee/1626200580757-K927HUUJ89SAQ4AODWK0/gesture-journal.jpg Home - Publications The society publishes the journal “gesture” and the book series “gesture studies”.

With particular research foci, the centers and groups advance the study of gestures in different fields and by following different methodological and theoretical approaches. The centers and groups push forward the study of gestures in their respective fields and promote gesture research outside of academia through lecture series, workshops and other public events. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e40adbe2279656a2d505ee/1626201796192-RGM84WA5TGWTK7PK9GF1/in+the+news.jpg Home - Gesture Research in the news Research from members of our societies is often featured in the press.
