How to get to Paradise Point from San Diego International Airport and Transportation Details Paradise Point Resort is located about 6–8 miles from San Diego International Airport (depending on route) and the best way to travel is by taxi or ride share (Lyft or Uber). Travel time between Paradise Point and the airport by car is around 15–20 minutes. There are designated areas for Lyft/Uber right outside the airport building and you can follow signs. Important: Taxis, Ubers and Lyfts typically pick up directly from the Front Lobby. How do I submit my receipts for the SWS Cost Share? After returning home from the Winter Meeting, you will submit your Cost Share form and receipts via the MemberClicks platform. Please hold onto your receipts and do not email them to the Executive Office. We will only be processing these via this online submission system. This is the same process that all attendees will follow (Award Winners, Officers, Chairs, and all Members). Please make sure that you notify the hotel staff at check–in if you are splitting the cost of the room with others. Then, they will be able to easily issue separate receipts to you upon your checkout. Please anticipate receiving your cost shares within 4 weeks of submitting 4 your form. Review the SWS Cost Share Policy here: https://socwomen.org/meetings/sws—cost—share— policy/ This year, we provided the opportunity for members who pre–registered early to apply for the cost share before the meeting to reduce the time that it will take for you to receive your cost share reimbursement. Everyone who filled out the Pre–Meeting Application System for 2020 Cost Share form will receive their checks at the Winter Meeting on Saturday, February 1 at the Awards Banquet and Dinner.

This space can be used for religious services, yoga, meditation, etc. Audio visual Matters: We will have audio visual equipment available in some of the meeting spaces, but not all. We have based the need for microphones on the size of the room and the number of attendees we are anticipating in those spaces. We have PowerPoint capability for the individuals who have requested it and for all of the plenaries.

It has been an amazing year preparing for our 2020 Winter Meeting and I trust you are all looking forward to it as much as I am. The theme of this year’s conference is “Feminist Futures in the Global South: Visions, Scholarship, Activism, and Creativity.” The goal is to explore, acknowledge, and celebrate ways in which the next generation of feminists envision, organize, and strategize to promote social justice and advance gender equality in their respective contexts, whether regionally in the global South, through scholarly and activist engagement around migration and border politics, or by honoring the history, accomplishments, and future trajectories of the discipline of women, gender, and sexuality studies, including feminist sociology which we all share in common as SWS members. My vision for this meeting is that we can use this opportunity to engage in critical feminist dialogue with each other on these and other pressing issues that have an impact on our world today and from these exchanges, learn from each other through our scholarship, activism, pedagogy, and creativity how we and others respond individually and collectively to build sustainable communities that are firmly grounded in feminist principles of gender equality and social justice. We have an excellent line up of plenary speakers coming from Colombia (Erika Marquez Montaño), Ghana (Akosua Darkwah, University of Ghana), Iran (Kristin Soraya Batmanghelichi, Oslo University), and Trinidad and Tobago (Sue Anne Barratt, University of the West Indies, St. Augustine). Other visiting plenary speakers are Joanna Brooks, Co–Founder, Detainee Allies, San Diego, California and Associate Vice President for Faculty Advancement at San Diego State University; Doreen Mattingly, Chair of the Department of Women’s Studies at San Diego State University, California; and Shereen Siddiqui, Assistant Professor of Gender, Sexuality, and Women’s Studies at Santiago Canyon College, Orange County, California. We are also showcasing our own SWS star scholars, such as Sara Crawley, Manisha Desai, Marlese Durr, Melanie Heath, Minjeong Kim, Veronica Montes, Bandana Purkayastha, Manashi Ray, and Roberta Villalón. Plenary sessions will be chaired by renowned SWS scholars Margaret Abraham, Chris Bose, and Mary Osirim. I am very excited to bring to SWS the Augmented Reality Comic Book Exhibit based on Priya’s Shakti’s Indian Comic Book Series. Reuters describes the series “as the first Indian comic book of its kind—not only confronting teenagers with the sensitive issue of sexual violence, but also engaging young people through its innovative use of augmented reality technology.” The comic book on which the exhibit is based features India’s first female superhero who is a rape survivor and was named by UN Women as a “Gender Equality Champion.” Our own Marybeth Stalp, Chair of the Winter Meeting Program Planning Committee, will introduce and moderate discussion about the exhibit during Thursday evening’s Welcome Reception. In line with the theme of this year’s meeting, proceeds from the Silent Auction will go towards funding two local organizations: Detainee Allies, a San Diego based organization working on family separation and refugee detention and License to Freedom, a grassroots organization working to stop domestic violence in refugee and immigrant communities in San Diego County. A representative from each organization will speak briefly at the Banquet and Silent Auction. Please remember to bring items for the Silent Auction and money to buy these items so that we can raise a good amount to present to both organizations, which are doing such good work. Planning a meeting is not easy work and takes a lot of staff and volunteer time and effort. I thank Barret Katuna, our Executive Officer, and Natasha Santana, Assistant to the Executive Officer; Marybeth Stalp, Winter Meeting Program Planning Committee Chair, and Minjeong Kim, Chair of the Local Arrangements Committee; and all members of the Planning and Local Arrangements Committee, namely, Georgiann Davis, Sasha Drummond–Lewis, Jax Gonzales, Shobha Hamal Gurung, Alyssa Hernandez, April Hovav, Veronica Montes, Vanessa Nuñez, Manashi Ray, Ranita Ray, Marisa Salinas, Ruth Marleen Hernández (Auction) and Kamryn 6 Warren Auction) without whose time, commitment, and voluntary efforts it would have been difficult to put together this excellent program. Thank you all so much. I’d like to also thank all those members who are volunteering in various capacities during the meeting to make the program a success. Before we engage in these critical and pressing dialogues, let us acknowledge that the land on which we gather is the traditional territory of the Kumeyaay Nation, whose territories extend across the recent, nation-state territorial borders referred to as the United States of America and Mexico. We acknowledge and pay our respect to this land and its Peoples who continue to resist, live, and uphold their sacred relations, and through this acknowledgement, we, SWS, commit to beginning the processes of addressing ongoing settler colonialism from which our institutions continue to benefit. We thank the people of the Kumeyaay Nation for their continued stewardship. I look forward to spending time with you all at Paradise Point, wish you all safe travels to and from our meeting, and thank you for the opportunity to serve as the next President of SWS.
