The Feminist Incubator Series 2017/18

We are pleased to invite you to the next session of the Feminist Incubator Series, which will take place on Tuesday, October 31, 2017 at the University of Ottawa, FSS 4015 from 12:30 pm to 2:00 pm. Coffee and snacks will also be provided.

The second submission to be discussed, entitled #Feminism: Popular Culture and the Representation of a Movement,” was submitted by Katharine Bausch from Carleton University.  We’d like to thank her for her submission to this series.

What’s a Feminist Incubator?

Do you have a nascent idea for a new book or article that could use some help? Are you a struggling to develop a novel theoretical framework, a particular concept, a new approach? Bring it to the Feminist Incubator, a new space for collegial brainstorming brought to you by the Joint Chair and the Pauline Jewett Institute of Women’s and Gender Studies!

How does it work? 

Two weeks ahead, you send us two pages that we will circulate to other faculty members, CIs, and graduate students in women’s and gender studies at Carleton and Ottawa U.  Everyone who attends will have read your submission and will arrive with ideas to help you brainstorm, and take the next step in developing your brilliant idea. This is not meant to be a formal presentation, but rather offers a space to work through new ideas and outlines, while receiving suggestions from colleagues.
