We warmly invite you to participate in the fourth international "Pushing Boundaries鈥� to be held virtually and in-person at the University of Colorado at Boulder, June 15-17, 2022. Our main goals are to gather as feminist geographers, to share our work (however 鈥渋n progress鈥� it may be), and to discuss in community.听
Conference Submissions Due by March 8, 2022.
Pushing Boundaries acknowledges the ways physical, geopolitical, theoretical, imagined, emotional, biological and disciplinary boundaries inform and are informed by our research and feminist praxis. In some cases, these boundaries are prohibitive and reproduce exclusions. In others, feminist geography pushes against, critiques and traverses such boundaries, leading to greater insight driven by the imperative for social justice and inclusion at all scales.听
The format of the conference also pushes against and extends geographical boundaries of time and space. The conference will be hosted both in-person at University of Colorado Boulder, USA, with time zone-friendly programming for India, the UK, Canada, and at multiple sites including Uganda and Ecuador.听
The conference (in-person and online) supports multiple formats and modes of engagement including flipped paper sessions, roundtable discussions, professional development workshops, mentoring and networking opportunities, 鈥榠n person鈥� self-organized events, virtual coffee time and keynote panels. All sessions will be recorded and available live and for 30 days following the conference for registered participants to view.听
