Long Abstract:

This panel focuses on feminist framings of socio-ecological relations and crises and what they mean for our understanding of the structural, socio-political limits to human wellbeing and progress (such as global inequality in all its forms) and the possibilities for transformation. In particular, the panel will consider how global pressures, not least of all environmental, have shaped women's and gender diverse people's options and, in many situations, made their lives more precarious. On the other hand, the panel seeks to engender conversations around how feminist analyses can be a critical resource for interrogating knowledge and governance regimes which form the basis for inequalities, disempowerment, and marginalization. More importantly, it aims to make more visible alternative perspectives of what matters in development grounded in gendered accounts of living in a world of crisis and uncertainty

Papers are invited that apply feminist knowledge and conceptual frameworks to the Anthropocene, and include case studies from the Global and Political South, and will consist of topics such as:

Migration

Humanitarianism

Gender transformative approaches and agriculture

Rethinking ecology, feminism, and the Anthropocene

We look forward to your contributions.
