Werklund School of Education Gender and Education Association International Conference Gender Complexity, Collaboration, Connectedness
June 15th – 18th, 2020 University of Calgary | Calgary, Alberta https://werklund.ucalgary.ca/gc32020/home About
Welcome to the University of Calgary. We would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the traditional territories of the people of the Treaty 7 region in Southern Alberta, which includes the Blackfoot Confederacy (comprising the Siksika, Piikani, and Kainai First Nations), as well as the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda (including the Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Wesley First Nations). The City of Calgary is also home to Métis Nation of Alberta, Region III. We would also like to note that the University of Calgary is situated on land adjacent to where the Bow River meets the Elbow River, and that the traditional Blackfoot name of this place is “Moh’kins’tsis”, which we now call the City of Calgary.
Our 2020 conference will reflect on the pillar of gender as a central identifier in education. The primary goal is to provoke conversations attentive to the complexity of gender particularly as it relates to the current social, political context. The (dis)locating identities from a gendered lens speaks to the diverse and complex ways people are positioned through empowering and dis- empowering practices and knowledges. Nationally, internationally and locally, we are witness to Calls to Action and the need for respectful dialogue across communities for greater intercultural understandings. We are in the midst of a troubling and troubled landscape wherein identity politics are used and misused.
Thematically the conference will be responsive to and reflective of the ways in which gender is complexly located within education. The complexity of gender points to the intersectionality and the matrices of power associated with gender in education. This conference will variously address the messiness of gender in the practical and theoretical realm with consideration of the implications this has for those in education as well as those outside of education. It is also a conference that will address collaboration both in the purest sense in which gender is a collaborative process through which we are authored and co-authored as well as in the broader sense that feminists and critical educators engage in collaborative research and activism to disrupt normative ideologies.
Collaboration is highly valued and promoted and in fact, during this conference our team will endeavour to promote opportunities for collaboration and community, spaces and places throughout the conference that prompt dialogue and nurture national and international collaboration. Finally, this conference is designed to speak to the connectedness possible when theory meets practice. A significant component of this year’s conference is the ways that theory informs and provides for practical implications, particularly in education.
The Werklund School of Education at the University of Calgary is honored to be the first North American university to host the Gender and Education Association International conference. We look forward to welcoming national, international and local educators, teachers, administrators, policy makers, community leaders, agencies and activists with a particular focus on gender, social justice, equality and education.
From June 15 - 18, 2020, Calgary, Alberta will be the gateway for this international conference of educators and researchers to bring rich and dynamic research-informed dialogue that promises to provide a collaborative and truly connected approach to critical education. Partnering with schools, agencies, publishers and interested parties, this conference aims to provide a welcoming home for the conference as well as a doorway to the vastness of Alberta, Canada, that extends beyond our city to the great Canadian Rockies and further.

She was the Academic Lead and Professor of Record on the hugely successful Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) called Indigenous Canada (which now has almost 30,000 online learners). Her research areas are rooted in decolonial methodologies often found within Indigenous Studies, specifically, she engages in the areas of Indigenous Erotics & Eroticanalysis; Indigenous Feminism, Gender and Sexuality Studies, Sovereignty, Land & Body Politics; and Contemporary Indigenous Art.
DR. JESSICA FIELDS Professor, University of Toronto
Dr. Jessica Fields is Director of the Interdisciplinary Centre for Health & Society and Professor of Health Studies and Sociology at the University of Toronto Scarborough. Fields’ research focuses on racialized and gendered discourses of vulnerability and risk. Fields is the author of Risky Lessons: Sex Education and Social Inequality (Rutgers), which received the 2009 Distinguished Contribution to Scholarship Book Award from the American Sociological Association’s Race, Class, and Gender Section and is currently completing another book, Problems We Pose: Feeling Differently about Qualitative Research (University of Minnesota Press), in which she welcomes emotion and feeling as a source of insight—not an obstacle to understanding— into the racialized, gendered, and sexual inequities that compromise health and well-being. Fields leads The Beyond Bullying Project (with Drs. Laura Mamo, Nancy Lesko and Jen Gilbert and funded by the Ford Foundation), a community-based storytelling project that interrogates policymaking that challenge perceptions of LGBTQ sexualities and youth as problems and consider what is required for sexual health education to open up to the uncertainty, discomfort, and pleasure of learning from and about LGBTQ sexuality and lives.
DR. LANCE MCCREADY Associate Professor, University of Toronto
Dr. McCready teaches School & Society in the Secondary Initial Teacher Education Program (B.Ed.) and Urban Education, Gender Equity, Qualitative Research Methods in the graduate Curriculum Studies and Teacher Development Program. He also serves as the department coordinator and instructor in the M.Ed. cohort in Urban Education. Dr. McCready's research program is concerned with the education, health and well-being of urban youth. His dissertation and subsequent publications focused on "making space" for diverse masculinities in urban education and how the experiences of gay and gender non-conforming Black male
8 GEA2020| UNIVERSITY OF CALGARY students reframe the troubles Black males face in urban high schools. His most recent research focuses on the educational trajectories of young black men in Canadian urban centres, and programs and services for ethnic and racial minority males who are underrepresented in North American colleges and universities. Conceptually, he is interested in the ways intersectionality, social determinants of health, and gender relations frameworks can be mobilized to develop more effective programs that promote academic achievement, well-being, school engagement, and access to higher education.
DR. C.J. PASCOE Associate Professor, University of Oregon
CJ Pascoe is an Associate Professor of Sociology at the University of Oregon where she teaches courses on sexuality, masculinity, social psychology, and gender. Her current research focuses on masculinity, youth, homophobia, sexuality and new media. Her book, Dude, You’re a Fag: Masculinity and Sexuality in High School won the American Educational Research Association’s 2007 Book of the Year Award as well as an honourable mention for the American Sociological Association's Section on Sex and Gender’s Distinguished Book Award. Dude documents the relationship between homophobic harassment, heterosexism and masculinity in high school. In it, CJ suggests ways we might begin to redefine gender norms that are damaging to both boys and girls. CJ’s research has been featured in the New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Toronto Globe and Mail, American Sexuality Magazine and Inside Higher Ed. She has appeared in the Frontline documentary Growing Up Online as well as on National Public Radio’s All Things Considered.

She recently just co-published (With Chen & Albanese) The sociology of childhood and youth in Canada (Canadian Scholars’ Press, 2018). She also has published School rules: Obedience, discipline, and elusive democracy (University of Toronto Press, 2012) and Smart girls: Success, school and the myth of post-feminism (University of California Press). This was a SSHRC-funded study that examined girls, smartness, gender, and inequality in high school. Dr. Raby is also the co-editor of the textbook: Power and Everyday Practices (with Deborah Brock and Mark Thomas, York University), which draws on Marxist and Foucauldian thinking in order to complicate everyday activities.
