[Commlist] Canadian Game Studies Association 2023 Conference - “Sustainable Action/Sustaining Action"

Thu Jun 01 14:28:18 GMT 2023




The fully online annual conference <https://gamestudies.ca/cgsa-acej-2023-sustainable-action-sustaining-action/>of the Canadian Game Studies Association is happening soon. The conference theme is “Sustainable Action/Sustaining Action,” which both expresses CGSA’s continued commitment to anti-racism and decolonization and signals our concern for the ecological impact of games and academic conferencing.


Recorded paper presentations can be accessed now and between June 6-9 there are live discussion panels with paper authors, workshops, and special events including keynotes by *Gabrielle Trépanier-Jobin* (Université du Québec à Montréal) on *“What Ecofeminism and Decolonial Studies Have to Teach Us About Raising Ecological Awareness Though Games,”* and *Alenda Y. Chang* (University of California, Santa Barbara) on sustainably developed games “*Animal, Digital, Vegetable, Mineral: An Unsustainable Guessing Game*.” In all, the conference features 80+ papers, lectures, and workshops from critical, humanities, and social-science approaches (see theonline program <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zMX48z2bSML8PfAzBPjGs7VWeFhfCmPFM3NkCUGxj_I/edit?usp=sharing>for more information and details about workshops, play sessions, and special events).
