Dear colleagues,
I hope that this email finds you well.
I am pleased to share this call for an online international seminar titled Feminising urban struggle: bodies, territories and politics in women’s production and reproduction of peripheral spaces. The event is organized by CUBES, in partnership with academic institutions in Brazil, Tanzania and the Netherlands.
The two-day online international seminar, between 6 and 7 November of 2023, aims at debating critical feminist urban research and exploring new epistemologies at the intersection of gender, women’s urban struggles, and the production of peripheral territories. This event initiates a larger Urban Studies Foundation-funded Seminar Series exploring the urban struggles of marginalised women in transforming their peripheral territories in different contexts of the Global South, particularly, Southern Africa and Latin America.
The call for abstracts in English, Portuguese and Spanish can be found here and the deadline for abstract submission is 20 August 2023.
Scholars from different fields of knowledge whose work relates to the topic are encouraged to apply and to share this call.
