The Centre for Research on Families and Relationships invites you to participate in the intellectual excitement that would have been gained from our covid-cancelled June 2020 international conference Intersectionality Families and Relationships.
Speakers will provide a 10-minute taster on their original conference theme. You, the audience, are invited to spend the next hour exploring with them whether and how Covid-19 has changed the agenda.
