CREATING CHANGE: FEMINISM, THE UNIVERSITY AND SOCIETY
DATE: MARCH 11 &12, 2011
LOCATION: UNIVERSITY COLLEGE DUBLIN, DUBLIN 4, IRELAND
Come join us in dublin, ireland as feminists meet to discuss the relationship between the university and social change. We will explore the methods used by feminist advocates and academics to reach across boundaries constructed by region, profession and at times ideological difference. The conference will interrogate how scholarship, clinical interventions, and academic-ngo collaboration has the capacity to generate social change in such areas as human rights, environmental justice, reproductive justice, the family and the workplace.
