The International History Seminar of the North was established in 2023 to provide a platform for researchers in the field of international history from across the North of England. It aims to showcase the research of scholars based in the region and places particular value on the development of postgraduate and early career researchers. The Seminar holds two events each academic semester: an in-person workshop at a university in the region and an online seminar.
