We are excited to announce the Global Labour Research Centre (GLRC) has collaborated with theCanadian Association for Work and Labour Studies (CAWLS)for theNew Voices in Work & Labour Studies Workshop Series, a weekly online workshop series of 12 interdisciplinary panels that will take place on selected days from October 15 to November 12, 2020.
Building on the GLRC's annual Graduate Student Symposium and the New Voices in Work and Labour Studies stream of the annual CAWLS conference, this online series is designed to promote the scholarship of new scholars (graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, and faculty/researchers in the first five years of their appointment), reflective of the wide range of themes and methodological and theoretical approaches pertaining to the study of work and labour. Given the unprecedented hardship presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, we hope that this series can mitigate some of the isolation we are experiencing and offer a space of encounter for emerging scholars to come together and think through their work.
We also hope you'll join us for theJohn Eleen Annual Lecture in Global Labour, featuring Toronto Star reporter Sara Mojtehedzadeh, which will kickstart our workshop series onThursday, October 8, 2020 at 5:00 pm ET.
