Facebook is a popular social networking website, especially among undergraduates and graduate students. We now have an IAFFE page of our own on Facebook. The journal Feminist Economics also has a fan page, as described on the journal's website. If you have a profile already, join up, and if not, you can create a profile and join. Please be sure to encourage any students who show a special interest in IAFFE to join.
As a new generation of scholars makes its way through the pipeline, let us take advantage of all the new tools out there to build a strong network and share our resources. Facebook allows IAFFE to publicize conferences and create community, especially among students.

We also have a Feminist Economics YouTube channel that collects all the relevant videos we know of in one place.
