The Caribbean In/Securities and Creativity Research Network (CARISCC) will be hosting its 3rd Postgraduate Research Conference on Monday 15 January 2018 at the University of the West Indies, Mona Campus, Kingston, Jamaica.
This interdisciplinary conference will open with a welcome message and introduction by CARISCC’s Principal Investigator, Dr Patricia Noxolo, followed by two keynote lectures: (1) “Moving Caribbeans: Migration, Tourism and In/Secure Mobilities,” presented by Dr Susan Mains, Lecturer in Human Geography, University of Dundee, UK; (2) “Dancehall Dancers: In/Secure Livelihoods,” presented by Orville Hall, Artistic Director for the Jamaican performing arts company Theatre Xpressionz.
Panel sessions featuring research papers by eight Ph.D. candidates and early career postdoctoral researchers will be presented throughout the conference programme.
