This years' conference theme is "Gender and Education in the Asia-Pacific: Possibilities and Provocations".
"The conference theme highlights the significance of place in the politics and production of knowledge. It is prompted by, but not restricted to, debates about knowledge hierarchies and relations between the 'global north' and 'global south'. The conference seeks to canvass the diversity of current challenges and emerging possibilities in the field of gender and education, and the various forms these take in local and specific contexts and transnationally. An overall concern of the conference is to promote critical dialogue on the role of context, place and history in shaping scholarship, practices and policies on gender, feminism and education."
