Session Type: Pre-Conference Mentoring Session

Abstract

This session brings together a range of scholar-practitioners who seek to move scholarship beyond the bounds of pay-walled journals and academic conferences to address social inequities and injustices across the globe. Panelists will describe their experiences enacting public scholarship and provide strategies for expanding possibilities of how research can be re/presented. This session will begin with panelists describing the value they place on accessible, community-oriented research and demonstrate examples of the strategies they’ve taken to break free of traditional dissemination channels. We will then transition into a small-group activity where graduate student attendees discuss their current research projects and workshop ideas for re/presenting their findings in alternative formats.
