Can you please place this announcement on relevant listserves and websites? The call is below, and as an attachment. We look forward to welcoming you all to Christchurch. CALL FOR PROPOSALS DSE 2013: (Re)Imagining and (Re)Building Education for All University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand 7 to 9 June 2013 What possible futures do we want to imagine for education? What might Disability Studies in Education contribute to restoring confidence in education systems and practices? The themes for the 2013 Disability Studies in Education Conference address the many challenges to education for all in the current neo-liberal climate of individualism, competition and audit. Holding the conference in Aotearoa/New Zealand provides opportunities to contextualise disability within political and social spheres informed, contested and shaped by biculturalism and indigenous understandings. Holding the conference in Christchurch provides opportunity to think about possibilities in a city seeking to rebuild both infrastructure and community in education. What needs (re)storing?
