LOCATION:Marion McCain Building 6135 University Avenue \, Halifax\, Canada\,  B3H 4R2
DESCRIPTION:<p><strong>Topics of the workshop</strong>: Feminist Philosophy\; Bioethics\; Ethics<strong><br></strong></p>\n<p><strong>The format of the workshop</strong></p>\n<p>Six abstracts will be accepted for the program on the basis of both their quality and their representation and extension of Sherwin&rsquo\;s work.&nbsp\; Authors will be asked to share drafts of their papers with commentators six weeks before the workshop. The goal is not only to help authors prepare papers for publication and have a rigorous and wide-ranging conversation focusing on Sherwin&rsquo\;s work\, but also to encourage participation from a wide range of people (as commentators\, for instance). Registration for this one-day event will be open to all who want to celebrate Sherwin&rsquo\;s work. We hope to publish papers and commentaries in a special issue of a journal. Discussions are currently underway with the International Journal of Feminist Approaches to Bioethics (IJFAB).</p>\n<p><strong>Submission</strong></p>\n<p>We invite abstract submissions of 500 words that engage with Sherwin&rsquo\;s scholarship in bioethics\, broadly construed. Please note that although Sherwin&rsquo\;s work has been housed in philosophy\, her approach is interdisciplinary\; abstracts are welcome from an array of disciplines and approaches. Abstracts should be submitted as word\, rft or pdf files to SueFest2018@gmail.com by September 15\, 2017.</p>\n<p><strong>Planned Timeline</strong></p>\n<p>Abstracts of 500 words due: <strong>September 15\, 2017</strong></p>\n<p>Abstract Acceptance notification: October 1\, 2017</p>\n<p>Paper drafts or detailed presentation notes due:April 15\, 2018</p>\n<p><strong>Workshop date: May 26\, 2018 (immediately following CBS)</strong></p>\n<p>Submission of final papers for review in special issue:September 1\, 2018</p>\n<p>Anticipated publication date:Fall 2020</p>\n<p>People who would like to be considered as commentators (including people who submit abstracts) should submit their names\, with an attached or linked cv and brief (one or two sentence) description of their knowledge of and interest in Sue&rsquo\;s work to <strong>SueFest2018@gmail.com</strong> (by September 15\, 2017).</p>\n<p>We plan to apply for a SSHRC Connections Grant to assist speakers (both authors and commentators) with their travel\, but currently cannot guarantee funding.</p>\n<p><strong>Contact</strong></p>\n<p>Letitia Meynell&nbsp\; (Letitia.Meynell@dal.ca) and Kirstin Borgerson (Kirstin.Borgerson@dal.ca).
