If you’ve got something to say about how social forces such as gender, race, and class affect our ability to give and receive care, or about how activists and experts from different disciplines can contribute to the understanding of care work, the Carework Network wants to hear from you.
The network is seeking papers for its 2009 conference, a one-day conference that brings together researchers, policymakers and advocates involved in various domains of carework (direct care, child care, etc.) The application deadline has been extended to April 20.
An international organization of care work researchers, policymakers, and advocates, The Carework Network is co-chaired by Direct Care Alliance Executive Director Leonila Vega. Its conference will be held this August in San Francisco.
