2nd 'Equal is not enough' Conference

"Challenging differences and inequalities in contemporary societies", Antwerp (Belgium), 1-3 December 2010. The second 'Equal is not enough' Conference seeks to contribute to the understanding of the causes, consequences and underlying dynamics of inequalities, as well as to the understanding of contemporary policies to combat them. In challenging differences and inequalities in contemporary societies, the conference addresses different grounds of inequality, such as gender, ethnicity, sexual preference, disability, class and age, and also focuses on the comparison and intersection that can be drawn between them. It does so in four different streams, paying particular attention to law, public policies, organisations and the life course as such. Key note lectures will be given byProf. dr. Myra Marx Ferree, Prof. dr. Sara Ahmed and Prof. dr. Christa Tobler.  >> More information about the programme The Policy Research Centre on Equal Opportunities (PRCEO), a partnership between the University of Antwerp (UA) and Hasselt University (UHasselt), cordially invites scholars from various disciplines and approaches to participate in this conference. >> More information on the PRCEO We look forward to welcoming you for what promises to be an exciting opportunity to exchange new research findings and explore new ways of dealing with the challenging differences and inequalities in our contemporary societies!
