The conference aims to bring together researchers and practitioners engaged in the fields of Childhood Studies, Gothic Literature, Media Studies, Gender Studies, Early Childhood Development, Women's Health, Visual Arts and Mass Media, Children's Literature, Publishing for Children, Child Protection Services, Social Work, Community Development and other related areas. It is hoped that the interdisciplinary nature of the conference opens up the terrain to a multitude of issues, topics and theories surrounding Philippine and international perspectives on childhood and children's texts in various media. The conference also includes a round-table discussion with artists, illustrators, publishers, bloggers and other practitioners who have had years of experience in producing and reviewing reading material for children. Blogger-teacher Tarie Sabido chairs and moderates this round-table discussion. We welcome abstracts from postgraduates and early career researchers who would like to contribute 20-minute papers to a two-day conference at the University of the Philippines-Diliman in Quezon City, The Philippines. Please email 250- to 300-word abstracts and 50-word author bios by 23 July 2012 to romchild@orange.net. Thank you.
