Queer pedagogies here and now: Teaching queer studies at the intersection of global and local challenges

Seminar.

How can queer pedagogies be developed and practiced at a time when teaching and research take place amid complex global and local challenges?

That is the question we will address when researchers from across Europe meet for a seminar organized by the 4EU+ Network, InterGen, and the Coordination for Gender Research.

The seminar will feature a presentation by Mante Vertelyte (Aalborg University), who explores the small yet significant actions of diversity work, drawing on the experiences of women researchers in Danish STEM. We will also hear a presentation by Magda Pischetola (University of Copenhagen), who will speak about the pedagogies of care in higher education.

The day will conclude with a panel discussion in which university teachers from 4EU+ universities from Warsaw, Milan, Prague, and Copenhagen share their experiences teaching queer studies across cultural and institutional contexts.

The seminar is open to all, but please send an email to koen@hum.ku.dk if you would like to attend, so we know how much cake and coffee to order.
