FW: FWSA Biennal Conference 2017 - Call for papers is now open

I just would like to draw your attention to the FWSA 2017 conference which Strathclyde University will be hosting.

 

The FWSA 2017 conference has the following theme: Making space for feminism in the neo-liberal academy and we would like to invite researchers – academic or otherwise – to submit proposals on the following or similar topics:

 

• Feminist pedagogies, potentials and problems
• The academic precariat: early-mid-established career trajectories
• Gender, race and class in the academic labour market: getting in and staying in?
• Academic freedom and failures in neoliberal times
• Education, activism and policy futures
• Educational (im)mobilities
• Emotional existences into and out of academia
• Transnational alliances, praxis and coalitions
• Feminism and information literacy
• Feminist digital technologies in education and/for civic engagement

 

 

Further details about the conference call for proposals can be found here: http://fwsablog.org.uk/conferences-and-events/fwsa-biennial-conference-2017/

 

We look forward to welcoming you in Glasgow.

 

Best wishes,

Yvette and Cristina
