Dr. Sarah Vaughn is this year's keynote speaker! |
All current anthropology graduate students are welcome to participate. |
Dr. Vaughn is Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of California, Berkeley. Her work addresses climate change, vulnerability, expertise, and critical race theory. Her in-progress book, Engineering Vulnerability: An Ethnography of Climate Change and Expertise, engages questions about coastal flooding in Guyana and looks at how scientific representations of climate change impact everyday lived experiences.

We welcome abstracts from all sub-disciplines of anthropology, and we look forward to conversations with graduate students and faculty from disciplines across CU and beyond at the conference. The conference is free and open to the public.

In addition to the keynote talk and panels, the conference will host a workshop with Professor Sarah Vaughn. More information is forthcoming.
