## Transhemispheric Dialogues

### 17 March 2023 A Hybrid Roundtable Event hosted by the Institute of Advanced Studies, Loughborough University

**You are invited to a day of *Transhemispheric Dialogues*, bringing scholars, artists, curators and activists together across four ‘long-clock’ roundtables, to explore the transformative potential of *planetary feminisms* for decolonial, ecological thinking and creative praxis in many and more-than-human worlds.**

**Planetary feminisms** mobilize the deep interconnections between decoloniality, intersectionality and eco-criticality, to *re-imagine the human and (re-)make a world of many worlds.*

**Planetary feminisms** engage trans-scalar ecological thinking and creative praxis to challenge anthropo- and Eurocentric fictions of epistemic totality, *storying pluriversal worlds and worlding pluriversal stories.*

**Planetary feminisms** initiate experimental ecologies of *knowing, imagining and inhabiting, Earthwide and Otherwise,* moving beyond mutual survival, towards pluriversal and interdependent flourishing.
