In the frame of the Gender Matters: Aging, Care, and Migration Project, a workshop on the topic "Intersectionality, Aging, and Care" will take place on 12 May 2023, 09:00-12:00, in SZ 15.22. Prof. Dr. Sally (Trent University, Peterborough, Canada) will give a keynote titled "Intersectional Questions and Caring Conversations: Thom Fitzgerald’s Cloudburst and Beyond."
This interdisciplinary and interactive workshop on intersectionality introduces the concept of identity as fluid, fueled by and through multiple, often discordant, configurations of gender, “race”/ethnicity, sexuality, class, age, and ability. Following a keynote lecture by Sally Chivers (Trent) on the movie Cloudburst (2010) participants will have an opportunity to discuss and construct their own understanding of intersectionality in a creative setting.
