We are delighted to invite you to our upcoming workshop, "Unpacking Inequalities: Ageing, Care, and Gender in Southeast Europe," organized as part of the Cluster “In/equalities in the Context of Social Transformation Processes.”
This workshop will bring together scholars to discuss the intersectional dimensions of ageing and care work, particularly within the Southeast European context. We will begin with a panel discussion that examines the social, political, and financial aspects of ageing and care work through critical ethnographic and intersectional research. Following this, we invite you to a documentary screening that highlights the personal and ethical dilemmas faced by a female caregiver balancing her responsibilities and choices follwed by a discussion.
