In particular, we invite submissions addressing gendered aspects of

?       Health, health care and health technologies;
?       Workplace and educational settings and organisational practicces;
? Conceptualisations, productions, uses and impacts of social, cultural, media, architectural, environmental and/or political spaces; ? Discursive representations of new masculinities, femininitiess and sexualised subjectivities in national and international contexts; ? Gender at the intersection of age, ethnicity, social class annd dis/ability in â??the big societyâ??.

Submissions may be in a variety of formats including posters, verbal presentations and workshops.
