The 89th Annual Meeting of the Canadian Catholic Historical Association (CCHA) will be held on Thursday, June 1 and Friday, June 2, 2023 at York University. The meeting is a particularly special one, as 2023 marks the 90th anniversary of the Association
The CCHA invites proposals for scholarly papers dealing with any aspect of the history of the Catholic Church or Catholicism in Canada or the world. Papers that engage with the themes of this year’s Congress, “Reckonings and Re-Imaginings” as it relates to the history of Catholicism and the Catholic Church are also welcomed.
Papers presented at the conference will be eligible for consideration for publication in the CCHA’s annual peer-reviewed journal, Historical Studies.
Proposals for either individual papers, or entire sessions, or round tables of two or three related papers, are welcome. For individual papers, please submit a maximum 250-word proposal and one-page curriculum vitae. For panels or roundtable sessions, please send a maximum one-page proposal for the entire session and curriculum vitae for each participant. Curriculum vitae should include email and postal addresses.
Prospective presenters are encouraged to become members of the CCHA, and student memberships are available.
Please submit proposals on our website or via email by Tuesday, February 28, 2023 to:

Even if you are unable to present a paper this year, we hope you will plan to attend the CCHA Annual Conference!
