The seminar series takes place in a hybrid format and is jointly organized by the Department of Strategic Communication and the Department of Communication and Media at Lund University, in collaboration with researchers from the Department of Media, Communication and Cultural Studies at Goldsmiths, University of London.
Description:
In the face of escalating global crises, it’s time to rethink normative and masculine interpretations of issues such as war, peace, militarisation, care and resilience. This seminar series will explore feminist theories in media and communication to rediscover alternative ways of knowing, communicating and imagining a more just and peaceful world.
