16 Days - Panel Discussion: Charlotte Shevchenko Knight, Naomi Morris, Char Heather

Join writers and researchers Char Heather (University of York), Charlotte Shevchenko Knight (Manchester Metropolitan University), and Naomi Morris (University of East Anglia) as they explore the intersections of their creative-critical work in this discussion on feminist approaches to illness narratives.

In this online event, the panel will illuminate the gender inequality in medicalised spaces and language - and discuss how we might reconcile slippery experiences which resist a typical narrative by turning to creative-critical writing.

This event is part of 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, a series of poetry readings, panels and workshops led by academics in the field. Our events examine how poetry can create transformational social change in partnership with the public and policymakers.
