*** Apologies for Cross-Posting ***

The 6th Transforming Care Conference is being held at The University of Sheffield, UK, from June 26-28th 2023

The conference theme is: Boundaries, Transitions and Crisis Contexts

You are invited to submit a paper abstract for one or more of the conference Thematic Panels. A list of these, with information about the themes and conveners is here. The call for papers is attached to this email.

We specifically welcome papers that deal with the overarching theme of boundaries, transitions and crisis contexts, but also papers that look into care from other theoretical and empirical perspectives, within the following thematic dimensions:

    The institutional setting of care systems and care policy (in terms of social rights to care, public regulation, public/private arrangements involving non-profit and/or for-profit organisations, marketization trends, inclusion/selection criteria, affordability, quality, etc..)
    Care arrangements and practices, organised through formal and/or informal channels (caregiving and distribution of paid and unpaid care work, organisation and adequacy of care services and cash for care programs, etc.)
    Social and policy innovation on care services and care arrangements, and its impact and dilemmas
    Formal and informal care work, including involvement of informal carers as well as working conditions of formal care providers.

As always, the Transforming Care Conference offers the opportunity to submit papers outside the selected conference theme. The open stream is for new thinking and research outside the Boundaries, Transitions and Crisis Contexts theme, for the presentation of new ideas, theories and methods that take forward international debate and scholarship on care in all its human forms.
