This conference which will be held in Singapore on 13 - 14 September 2007 aims to explore the mutual interactions of global and local discourses and practices that shape female migration and labor in and across Asia, particularly in East and Southeast Asia, as well as Asian migrant women workers’ experiences, identities and agencies. The organizers seek insightful perspectives grounded in original empirical research that can effectively capture the dynamism of these gendered processes unfolding on the ground and in the lives of social actors they involve. Contributions from anthropology, gender studies, human and cultural geography, political economy, and sociology are especially welcome. Selected workshop papers will considered for publication in a special journal issue(s). Funding is available for selected participants.
Jointly Organized by the Asia Research Institute and the
Asian Metacentre for Population and Sustainable Development Analysis, National University of Singapore, Singapore
and Supported by The Wellcome Trust of the United Kingdom
