Genocide Studies International Special Issue | Call for Papers
by Pauline Tennent 20 Mar '23

20 Mar '23

For more information, see: https://www.utpjournals.press/journals/gsi/call-for-papers-special-issue-er… Genocide Studies International CALLS FOR PAPERS Special Issue: The Erasure and Revitalization of Indigenous Cultures and Languages The destruction of Indigenous languages, or linguicide, has had and continues to have catastrophic effects on Indigenous cultures, identities, knowledges, and the overall well-being of Indigenous peoples and communities. While there has been growing international commitment to raising awareness about and protecting Indigenous languages in recent years, research and publication on this subject remains limited. With this in mind, Genocide Studies International wishes to dedicate a special issue to the topic of Indigenous language erasure and revitalization with the objective of raising awareness around this issue from an interdisciplinary and comparative perspective. The editors seek submissions from scholars across disciplines that contextualize Indigenous language erasure as it relates to human rights, conflict, exploitation, colonialism, racism, bigotry, sexism, oppression, and globalization. Manuscripts that explore gaps, challenges, and opportunities for action in protecting and revitalizing Indigenous languages are also welcomed. This special issue aims to bring together a collection of papers that capture a broad cross-section of concepts, experiences, stories, and issues pertaining to the theme so as to inform policy, action, and best practices on Indigenous language protection and revitalization across scales, and geographical and disciplinary boundaries. Paper submission deadlines (early submissions encouraged): September 1, 2023 Read More<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001Ix3rJws0Xqy2tkV3HJhjj4Ycbd3_4ZgEvghHtLkRVJc…> General Call for Papers Genocide Studies International invites submissions of manuscripts focused on themes of genocide, human rights, crimes against humanity, and related mass atrocities. This peer-reviewed journal is dedicated to raising knowledge and awareness around these issues by providing a forum for the publication of original papers that take interdisciplinary and comparative approaches to critically analyze genocide and other forms of mass violence. Due to the constantly evolving and complex nature of genocide and related crimes, Genocide Studies International seeks manuscripts from across disciplines that contextualize these issues in relation to conflict, exploitation, colonialism, racism, bigotry, sexism, oppression, and globalization. Manuscripts that explore challenges and prospects for the long-term prevention of genocide, as well as those that focus on global and regional threats to human security, especially as they relate to genocide, are also welcome. Read More<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001Ix3rJws0Xqy2tkV3HJhjj4Ycbd3_4ZgEvghHtLkRVJc…> About G<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001Ix3rJws0Xqy2tkV3HJhjj4Ycbd3_4ZgEvghHtLkRVJc…>enocide Studies International In keeping with the objectives of the International Institute for Genocide and Human Rights Studies, this journal is dedicated to raising knowledge and awareness among scholars, policy makers, and civil society actors by providing a forum for the critical analysis of genocide, human rights, crimes against humanity, and related mass atrocities. Genocide and other forms of mass violence are constantly evolving, and we encourage scholarly submissions that address their continually changing nature. This includes interdisciplinary and comparative work on the history, causes, impact, and aftermath of genocide and related crimes, as well as those which contextualize genocide in relation to conflict, exploitation, colonialism, racism, bigotry, sexism, oppression, and globalization. We also welcome submissions that explore the challenges and prospects for the long-term prevention of genocide, as well as those that focus on global and regional threats to human security, especially as they relate to genocide. Consequently, this peer-reviewed journal publishes articles from various disciplines including, but not limited to, history, political science, sociology, psychology, international law, criminal justice, critical race studies, religion, philosophy, literature, anthropology, forensic sciences, art history, and women's, gender, and sexuality studies. ‌ <https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001Ix3rJws0Xqy2tkV3HJhjj4Ycbd3_4ZgEvghHtLkRVJc…> ‌ <https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001Ix3rJws0Xqy2tkV3HJhjj4Ycbd3_4ZgEvghHtLkRVJc…> ‌ <https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001Ix3rJws0Xqy2tkV3HJhjj4Ycbd3_4ZgEvghHtLkRVJc…> https://utpjournals.press/journals/gsi/call-for-papers-special-issue-erasur… Ekosani /Miigwech / Thank You, Lorena Sekwan Fontaine BA, LLB, LLM, PhD Associate Professor Human Rights Co-Director Indigenous Languages Global College University of Winnipeg 515 Portage Avenue Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada R3B 2E9 Email: l.fontaine(a)uwinnipeg.ca<mailto:l.fontaine@uwinnipeg.ca> Phone: 204.789.1428 Pronouns: she, her

Housing Discrimination and Human Rights | April 5th at 12noon
by Pauline Tennent 17 Mar '23

17 Mar '23

[cid:image003.png@01D958DE.4318C0E0]On Wednesday, April 5th at 12noon CDT, join the Centre for Human Rights Research at the University of Manitoba and the Canadian Centre for Housing Rights (CCHR) for a virtual webinar to learn about CCHR’s new discrimination audit report and engage with local advocates, community workers, and researchers in a discussion about housing discrimination in Winnipeg. About CCHR’s discrimination audit report: The Canadian Centre Housing Rights (CCHR) recently published a discrimination audit report called “Sorry, it’s rented.” Measuring Discrimination Against Newcomers in Toronto’s Rental Housing Market. The report examines the level of discrimination faced by newcomers in Toronto’s rental market, and how race, gender and parental status increases the likelihood of discrimination when searching for rental housing. The discrimination audit found that newcomers in Toronto face up to 11 times as much discrimination as non-newcomers when searching to secure rental housing. It also found that racialized newcomers experienced more discrimination compared to non-racialized newcomers when calling to inquire about a rental listing, and that certain family statuses compounded the experience of discrimination. Read the full report: https://housingrightscanada.com/reports/sorry-its-rented-2022/ The Centre for Human Rights Research and the Canadian Centre for Housing Rights welcomes: * Mary Burton, Fearless R2W * Azarias Butariho, New Journey Housing * Megan Earle, Canadian Centre for Housing Rights * Nancy Hansen, Disability Studie, University of Manitoba * Ryan McKay, Indigenous Input into Local Housing Project, Spence Neighbourhood Association Register now<https://bit.ly/3YekO7V> and submit your questions for the speakers!

It will be held from 3 to 7 July 2023, is destined to international students and will explore the theme "Mapping violences". Registration will be open from 1 February to 31 March 2023. The EHESS Summer School on Campus Condorcet Paris-Aubervilliers is meant to be an international event gathering all institutions present on this new European research campus in the humanities and social sciences. This EHESS initiative is, pedagogically and scientifically supervised by a committee of scholars from several member institutions located on the Campus. The theme of the 2023 edition: "Mapping violences" By crossing different disciplinary, thematic and cultural approaches, the aim is to endeavor to map violence, to study practices, situations, experiences of violence and their arrangement in topographic, social and mental spaces. The objective is to favour the dialogue between different perspectives of research on violence and more particularly on extreme violence. Be it political violence, state violence, wars, guerrilla wars, revolutions, oppression, massacres, and domestic violence, since it is often -in these contexts- amplified, will also be broached. How are we to observe, define and analyse these violent phenomena? What are the methodological, epistemological and ethical questions specific to these particularly sensitive and fluid objects? Apply to the EHESS Summer School<https://www.ehess.fr/fr/vie-l%C3%A9cole/call-applications-ehess-summer-scho…> Enrolment will be open from 1 February to 31 March 2023. Number of registrations is limited. The scientific committee, in charge of organising the Summer School event and gathering researchers from EHESS but also from other institutions located on Campus Condorcet, will review and select the applications.
