On February 4th, The Integrating Care and Livelihoods Research Cluster of the Live Work Well Research Centre will be hosting A Community Conversation "Troubling Care."
Troubling Care
The idea of ‘troubling care’ has been conceptualized by feminist scholars such as Ann Bartos (2018) and Parvati Raghuram (2016), calling researchers to consider the complex ways in which care is practiced, experienced, and understood. The work of attending to the complexities of care is also happening outside of academia, with community benefit organizations, artists, activists, caregivers, and other actors complicating what care means and re-imagining how it is practiced.
This event will bring together community members and academics for a community conversation on care, exploring the complexities inherent within it. The conversation will feature a panel of practitioners and scholars who are engaged in the practice of “troubling care” and will explore panelists’ everyday experiences and understandings of care, the practices they use to “trouble care,” and their visions for more caring futures.
Panelists will include folks from the Guelph Neighbourhood Support Coalition (GNSC), Arts Everywhere's Complicating Care Series, and the University of Guelph
This community conversation is a part of my (Amy’s) Qualifying Exam as well as a launching event for the Live Work Well’s cluster focused on care.
