This conference will also ask how social activism, feminism and social theory can help us understand, as well as communicate the findings, of empirical research in this field. We welcome theoretical, methodological, and empirical papers which help address the aims of this event or which introduce new pertinent questions which enable us to critically map this arena of study.
