I convened a series - Conversations in Transgender Studies - held for four weeks (virtually) at the University of Melbourne between 23 April and 14 May 2021.
‘Conversations in Transgender Studies’ is a mini-series of panels held online hosted and supported by the Faculty of Arts Gender Studies Program and the School of Social and Political Sciences. Held across four weeks, the series places academic, community and practitioner voices in dialogue as a way to consider some cross-cutting issues within transgender studies now. Across four weeks the series will address a series of topics and their intersections – work, the law, sport, health – as an opportunity to highlight how social scientific inquiry responds to and engages with voices from the community. The panel series takes advantage of an online format to bring together people in conversation from both around Australia and globally. The series is one part in an ongoing conversation, which will be followed by panels on a range of other critical topics in future.
