“Where does feminism go from here?” (MMU conference, 6-7/July)

International Conference on Violence Against Women and Girls

This conference is aimed at: activists; academics; activist lawyers; students; interested professionals; the Crown Prosecution Service and Police officers.  We particularly welcome any women working within women’s services and everyone who wants to make a difference to women’s lived experience of surviving violence.

The conference aims to: raise our consciousness; challenge our practice and galvanize feminist activism.  We aim to create space for the exchange of ideas where we can rethink liberal certainties and (re-)politicise women’s services.
The conference will include provision of women-only workshops and space.  The programme will consist of facilitated discussions as well as more formal academic addresses.
