From Theory to Practice: Leveraging Feminist Approaches to Care at a Time of Crisis

20-21 July 2022

Convenors: Professor Megan Warin FASSA, Dr Sophie Chao, Emerita Professor Chris Beasley FASSA and Dr Pru Black

This interdisciplinary workshop took place at the University of Adelaide in July 2022 and brought together academics, community practitioners, curators and landscape architects to critically examine how feminist approaches to care can intervene in current crises and socio-political debates. Academics came from national and international locations and a range of disciplinary fields, including gender studies, anthropology, public health, sociology, environmental studies, education, art theory, and media, all of whom have research interests in feminist concepts of care.
