Subject: Open! Call for abstracts for the Gender & Education Conference 2018
Please find below information which we hope will be of interest to you, sent on behalf of Penny Jane Burke. Please feel free to send this onto your networks and contacts that may be interested.
The Centre of Excellence for Equity in Higher Education, with the support of the School of Humanities and Social Science, is pleased to
announce that submission of abstracts for the Gender & Education Conference 2018 to be held in Newcastle, Australia in
December 2018 is now open!
The aim of #GEACONF2018 is
to provide a rich and participatory forum to enable us to collaboratively explore the challenges and strategies for feminist educators, researchers, activists and participants in these complex and sometimes perplexing times.
The 2018 conference addresses a crucial theme of our times: ‘Gender, post-truth,
populism and pedagogies: challenges and strategies in a shifting political landscape’. We invite educators, researchers, and activists to take part in discussion, exploration and debate about the ways that knowledge, authority, truth, power and harm are resurfacing
and require deep, collective and sustained feminist intervention.
The conference will bring educators, researchers, and activists, together to explore key questions such as: what does it mean
to be pedagogical in a post-truth landscape? How might we work to intervene in this environment?
You can access the abstract
portal here. Abstract submission deadline is Friday 23 February.
