Call for Papers:
Health and Poverty
2020 Salzburg Conference in interdisciplinary poverty research
2 & 3 July 2020, University of Salzburg
Keynote speakers: Monica Magadi (Hull), Melissa Parker (LSHTM), Eva
Selenko (Loughborough), Stefania Ilinca (Dublin/Vienna)
Submission deadline: 31 January 2020
Conference website: https://www.poverty-conference.org/
The Centre for Ethics and Poverty Research, University of Salzburg,
invites the submission of proposals for single papers, thematic panels
(2, 4 or 6 papers), and roundtable sessions (3-5 discussants plus 1
chair) in all areas of poverty research but special attention will be
given to those concerned with the focus theme of health and poverty.
Health and poverty are interrelated in both rich and poor countries:
poverty worsens the subjective health status and leading to a range of
diseases and developmental disorders; people with health problems and
disabilities are more often poor and socially excluded than the rest
of the population. In addition to the search for causal links between
poverty and health at the local and global levels, other research
questions arise, some of which should be mentioned here as examples:
What influence does poverty have on the subjective and objective state
of health; how is this experienced and coped with by people in
poverty? How can effective and adequate health care be ensured for
poor people; which groups of the population are particularly
confronted with challenges and difficult to reach? What role do age,
gender, sexual orientation, cultural or ethnic identity or social
status play in the context of poverty and health?
This conference aims to bring together researchers and scholars from
different disciplines, approaches, backgrounds and experiences working
on the complex and manifold relation of health and poverty. Papers
exploring normative issues of (social and global) justice, human
rights or ethics in relation to health and poverty are welcomed.
Scholars working in the global south are particularly encouraged to
apply.
The registration fee for participants is 100€ and covers the
conference folder, a guided city tour on Friday, coffe breaks, two
lunch snacks and the conference dinner on Thursday. Students as well
as particpiants from countries classified as low-income or
lower-middle income economies by the World Bank pay a subsidized fee
of 75€.
