The Members’ Assembly is convened once a year by the Board of Directors. A written invitation with a provisional agenda is sent to the members by e-mail at least four weeks before the date of the assembly.

This meeting offers all members the opportunity to get involved, but also to find out what activities have taken place over the past year, what the research networks have done and what is planned for the future.

Every other year, SAGS organizes a public round table following its general meeting. These usually address topics from gender research that are relevant to a wider audience and current feminist issues.

Alternating with this, a public lecture is held every other year following the Members’ Assembly as part of the Brigitte Schnegg Prize ceremony.
