The international Society for Folk Narrative Research organizes free online lectures every month. There are two different lecture series, the ISFNR Lecture Series Voices from around the Globe and the ISFNR Belief Narrative Network Online Lectures. These lectures are freely available on their website for anyone that is interested.

About Voices from Around the Globe:
”The International Society for Folk Narrative Research is pleased to announce the start of a new lecture series entitled The ISFNR Lecture Series: Voices from Around the Globe, which will be open to not only our global network of international folk narrative scholars but also the general public. The lectures will take place online at 5 pm UTC, on the third Friday of every alternate month, beginning April 15, 2022, each of them coordinated by a member of the Executive Committee of the Society. The plan is for the Vice Presidents of the ISFNR to invite particular members of the Society (and other scholars to present their research in any language in which they wish to speak (bearing in mind the need to communicate to an international audience). The papers not presented in English will be made available in English translation.”

About The ISFNR Belief Narrative Network Online Lectures:
”The ISFNR Belief Narrative Network Online Lectures deal with folk beliefs of all kinds, and the narratives that are used to pass them on. The idea is that in the first week of each month, various international scholars present pre-recorded lectures on the subject of their choice which will later go on to be freely available on the ISFNR web site to anyone who wishes to make use of them as part of their research or in their teaching. The initial on-line showing is nonetheless always followed by a half an hour live on-line zoom meeting in which those who attend will be able to ask the speaker questions.
The lectures take place on the first Friday of each month at 17.00 Central European time, except during the summer months of July and August. ”
