Event overview
How do children encounter, experience and engage with public life and how might we recognise, describe and communicate such encounters, experiences and engagements?
Over the past five years the ERC Connectors Study (2014-2019) has been engaging with this question to better understand the relationship between childhood and public life working with a diverse group of younger children (aged 6-8 years) in three cities (Athens, Hyderabad, London) in order to reconceptualise meanings and practices of children’s participation.
This closing event will share theoretical and methodological advances from the study, as well as reflect on the study’s publics creating methodologies and the social life of a large international, European funded research project. We will also be launching the first-ever Children’s Photography Archive in the afternoon with a wine reception.
Join the team, guest speakers and discussants to celebrate five years of engaging critically, creatively and experimentally with childhood, public life, and politics.
The event is free and open to the public. Places are limited so please book. If you are eventually not able to attend and know so ahead of time, please cancel your place by emailing c.j.prater@gold.ac.uk
The event is funded by the European Research Council (ERC-StG-335514).
