BSA Ageing, Body and Society Study Group Conference:‘Ageing, Body And Society: Critical Perspectives, Future Challenges

During the last five years our study group has been exploring the social, cultural and biological dimensions of our bodies as we grow older.  For our fifth annual conference we wish to take the opportunity to review our progress and debate and consider our future challenges. In particular, this one day conference seeks to bring together academics and researchers whose work focuses on ageing bodies or wish to widen their interests by exploring the embodied dimensions of their research. 

We encourage researchers to share their perspectives on ‘ageing, body and society’ and welcome abstracts on different theoretical and methodological approaches, emergent ideas, work in progress, practitioner perspectives, and empirical findings.

For further information or to submit an abstract please visit the British Sociological Association website.
