Today's events
A hybrid workshop for John Molson faculty members on case writing and publishing with John Molson Case Publications Initiative Director Jordan LeBel.
This workshop will explore what it means to make “good trouble.” Making "good trouble", as described by Civil Rights Leader and Congressman John Lewis is doing “something out of the ordinary,” to make “a way out of no way.” As per Flint and Toledo (2021): "Troubling is about how we relate as we live and become together in the world." Together, we will use the concept of 'troubling' as a framework that notices and names injustices. We will also consider how we can create new ways of relating to one another in order to coexist in a good way. By the end of this session, participants will identify practical strategies for making "good trouble."

How might we apply care ethics to our daily lives? How might it influence how we understand what is “good” and “right”? How does this apply to educational spaces? This workshop will draw on the work of Nicki Ward (Ethics of Care, 2015) to investigate the relationship between intersectionality and care ethics. It will consider how these two theoretical frameworks might complement each other through the exploration of their individual principles, and how they might expand our own understanding of the lived realities of care, identity and diversity.
