Call For Papers: The Future of Fatherhood (University of Wollongong, Australia, November 7-8 2016)

Call For Papers: The Future of Fatherhood: What’s next in fathering practice and research?

The Centre for Research on Men and Masculinities (University of Wollongong) is hosting a two-day conference titled The Future of Fatherhood: What’s next in fathering practice and research? This conference will bring together researchers, practitioners, and those interested in fathering to explore fathering practice and research. What will the future of father research look like? What impact do fathers have? How can fathers be engaged in children’s lives? How do particular groups of men negotiate and experience parenting? How does fathering intersect with masculinity? How is fathering shaped by political, cultural, or institutional forces?

The conference will be held on November 7-8, 2016 on the campus of the University of Wollongong. Abstracts close on September 9.
