Project description

International Conference organized by the Center for Transdisciplinary Gender Studies (ZtG) and the Institute for European Ethnology (IfEE) at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.
The conference “Care – Migration – Gender. Ambivalent Interdependencies” offers a space to collectively investigate these interdependencies in their complexities and aims to initiate a discussion of such ambivalences.
In particular we will discuss the following:
• What forms do the interdependencies of care-migration-gender take in different places, in different fields, and with different stakeholders?
• How are the interdependencies of care-migration-gender shaped through different incentives, interests, and representations?
• How are the interdependencies of care-migration-gender regulated politically, legally, and socially?
• How and with which aims and effects have care workers organized?
