Seminars & Activities
The CCD seminar series consists of four different strands:
1. The CCD international seminars (always in English). The theme for the autumn 2022 seminars is Southern, Decolonial, Alternative Perspectives (of relevance to at least one of the following: identity, communication, learning, doing research). We will have three overarching themes for the international seminars – one theme per semester. The other two are Non-programmatic methodologies (of relevance for communication, culture and diversity), which runs in spring 2023, and Rethinking concepts/conceptual ideas (of relevance for communication, culture and diversity), running in the autumn of 2023.
2. The CCD working papers seminars (in English or Swedish).
3. Humanistic Forum seminars (in Swedish).
4. The DoIT seminars (DoIT - Delaktighet och Inkludering Tankesmedja [the Participation and Inclusion Think Tank], most often in Swedish).
Please note that all times are CET (Central European Time) or, in 2022 between March 27 and October 30, CEST (Central European Summer Time).

Nästa DoIT-träff 7 oktober 2022, kl. 9-12, hybridformat
Tema: Fritiden i pandemins spår – hur ser läget ut för allas delaktighet?
Erfarenheterna under pandemin har lett till förändringar i våra vanor, även när det gäller hur vi använder vår fritid. För att kunna möta utmaningar som segregation och utanförskap, behöver vi få inblick i rådande trender och mötas för gränsöverskridande samtal om delaktighet – även under fritiden.
DoIT-mötet den 7 oktober bjuder på en ögonöppnande möjlighet att tillsammans skapa en utgångspunkt för arbete med ett samhälle för alla överallt.
Vi kommer att få ta del av olika perspektiv på temat genom inbjudna inledande presentatörer och få möjlighet till efterföljande tvärsektoriellt samtal.
