SUMMARY;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:2022 Gender Justice Conference
LOCATION:Online Event
URL:https://ramconnect.wcupa.edu/rsvp?id=1102083
DESCRIPTION:The Gender Justice Conference Committee would like to invite you attend the Second Annual Gender Justice Conference to be held on March 30th, 2022. We intentionally plan to host this conference at the end of Women's History Month and just before the start of Sexual Assault Awareness Month in the hopes of unifying our office's goals of addressing gender-based oppression and centering joy and liberation for all.    \n\nIn 2021, the First Annual Gender Justice Conference was thematically organized around the groundbreaking research published in Sexual Citizens by Dr. Jennifer S. Hirsch and Dr. Shamus Khan, which examined the ways that identity and power influenced the sexual lives and vulnerabilities to harm of college students.  This year we will build on the learning we embarked on with last year's conference and continued into the fall semester with our It's On Us Speaks event with Sonalee Rashatwar (they/he), whose talk spoke to the connection between diet culture and rape culture, and how this is itself rooted in anti-black racism and white supremacy.  Our hope for the 2022 conference is to continue to examine the ways that all oppressions are intrinsically linked, and work to co-create an environment where transformative justice is possible, where everyone's safety is secured, and where everyone finds a space of connection and belonging. \n\nThis conference experience is dedicated to exploring the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary to engage in social change work with a specific focus on disrupting gender oppression, particularly as it intersects with other forms of oppression. \n\nOur vision for the 2022 conference is to continue to examine the ways that all oppressions are intrinsically linked and work to co-create an environment where transformative justice is possible, where everyone's safety is secured, and where everyone finds a space of connection and belonging. We position this conference to center the voices and lived experiences of those who have been harmed by systemic oppression, uplift those whose oppressions are often made invisible, and offer space for self-authorship and the creation of new narratives.  Participants will critically examine social justice issues through an intersectional lens and be encouraged to apply what they learn into their day-to-day lives and in their communities.  \n\nThe conference will be held March 30th from 10:00am to 8:00pm. Additional information can be found @wcu_cwge on Instagram.  \n\nSponsored by various campus partners, Center for Women & Gender Equity, 2021 It's On Us PA Grant and the 150th Anniversary Diversity Speaker Series.\n\n\nVisit the Virtual Conference Support Hub for additional information: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14PLm2Ej6mod8vX4Kpd01PJNLWGs5uiUxSp1MlObsWGM/edit?usp=sharing \n\n---\nEvent Details: https://ramconnect.wcupa.edu/rsvp?id=1102083
