The University of Pretoria, in collaboration with the University of KwaZulu-Natal and the Centre for Social Research in Health (CSRH), cordially invites you to the launch of Gender, Sexuality and Sexual Health in Southern Africa. Sex, sexuality and sexual health are often viewed through a narrowly biomedical lens. This ignores the fact that they are profoundly social and historical in character. Recent work in Southern Africa (and beyond) has sought to challenge this perspective, asking important questions about how to move beyond notions of damage and risk in relation to sex, sexuality and health, to a focus on recognition, rights, respect and pleasure. Building on the contributions in the recently published book – Sex, Sexuality and Sexual Health in Southern Africa – and the experiences of seminar participants, this event will take the lid off these and related concerns. This event will be of special interest to scholars, health professionals, community workers and activists seeking new ways of understanding and engaging with old issues Date: 31 August 2022 Time: 15h00 - 17h30 Venues: Future Africa Auditorium, Hillcrest Campus and Online Enquiries: danolien.vandenberg@up.ac.za Attachments Programme PROGRAMME_Troubling Others Thinking Other(wise) Booking Information Sexual Health Book Information Event Poster Troubling Others Thinking Other(wise) Call for Participation Call for Participation_Troubling Others Thinking Other(wise)-min
