Discussion symposium at Collective Atmospheres, ASLE 2025 Biennial Conference July 8-11, 2025 University of Maryland, College Park

Co-moderators invited to facilitate a discussion symposium about endeavors by academics, activists, and creatives that entangle, weave together, and co-create communities and coalitions – ephemeral or enduring – to further socioenvironmental justice.

The purpose of the proposed discussion symposium is to attend to and elevate the myriad ways that collective atmospheres are co-created and emergent from relationships, stories, imaginations, and thinking, feeling, being, and acting in diverse contexts.

All expressions of interest welcome; especially encouraged are expressions of interest from those working with low budgets or no budgets; those co-creating across languages and cultures; and those inspired by and acting for collective liberation and hope.

Please send a brief note of interest (150 words or so) to Laura Barbas Rhoden (barbasrhodenlh@wofford.edu) by December 5, 2024. Questions welcome. If selected, the panel will be in person.
