Connecting Lines: International Conference on Ecology, Feminism and Care
Tracing Care on the Intersection of Feminism and Ecology
With global warming hitting record highs each year, unprecedented climate disasters emerging in unexpected locations, and the prospects of more and more climate refugees, it has become clear that climate and social issues are intrinsically intertwined. These pressing conditions, manifested in different cultural practices, (re)articulate the relationships between human and non-human nature. Within the framework of the TRACTS and City of Women we will try to bring together discourses on gender equality and care in the deteriorating conditions of the late Anthropocene by bringing together artists and researchers who delve into issues of the climate crisis and social justice from a feminist, intersectional, queer, and decolonial perspective with a focus on care as a central paradigm for redefining our relationship with the environment and each other.
