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.
