Digital sexual citizenship and ?sext education?: building new theoretical toolkits to help adults engage with young people?s digital cultures As Ken Plummer argues, rights and responsibilities are not simply given, but ?have to be invented through human activities, and built into notions of communities, citizenship and identities? (1995, 150). While young people?s right to freedom from sexual coercion and abuse is increasingly accepted as a central narrative within Australian sexuality education and health promotion policy, sexuality education ? particularly as it is delivered in secondary schools ? seldom addresses young people?s positive rights to sexual self-expression. Despite this relative absence of a ?sexual citizenship? framework in sexuality education more broadly, there is an emerging language of ?digital citizenship? being applied to young people?s participation in online and mobile mediated spaces, particularly in educational content that seeks to address online bullying and harassment (including behaviours relating to sexting and pornography). For example, the Alannah and Madeline Foundation?s e-Smart program offers a ?Digital Licence? program through which young people can assert their citizenship (see https://www.digitallicence.com.au/). The eSmart Digital Licence is an online cyber safety program teaching children critical digital skills to be smart, safe and responsible when online. However, the intersection of sexual citizenship and digital citizenship has not been articulated in either sexuality education and sexual health promotion or in ?cybersafety? education policy and practice. This paper considers the ways that a theory of digital sexual citizenship might be productively deployed in the context of sexuality education and sexual health promotion, and how the concept of ?participatory culture? (Jenkins et al. 2016) might offer a means of applying this framework in practice. About the Speaker Kath Albury is a Professor of Media and Communication at Swinburne University of Technology, Australia. Her current research focuses on young people?s practices of digital self-representation, and the role of user-generated media (including social networking platforms) in formal and informal sexual learning. Kath leads the Australian Research Council Linkage Project ?Safety, risk and wellbeing on digital dating apps?, with industry partners ACON Health (formerly the AIDS Council of NSW) and Family Planning NSW.

Participate: In-person, skype, pre-recorded presentation, written paper. Please pass it on. - Education, Design and Practice - Understanding skills in a Complex World June 17th - 19th, 2019. Stevens Institute of Technology, New York / New Jersey. Abstracts: April 1st 2019 An early abstract submission is possible for delegates requiring an early decision. December 1st, 2018. http://architecturemps.com/newyork/ - Call: The relationship between education and practice in any discipline is complex. Today educators in the humanities still identify learning as an end in itself and designers still draw on ideas about intuitive knowledge. Social scientists often focus on applied learning. By contrast, business calls for graduates armed with the skills required in industry from day one. At the same time they value creative thinking and continual adaptation. Working within this context educators have developed new and innovative ways to teach, they have embedded participatory citizenship into their pedagogy and have forged unique partnerships across disciplines and outside the academy, and much more. However, research into best practice learning and teaching in the classroom is still evolving and educational initiatives can sometimes be seen as contradicting on the job realities in practice. This conference explores this complex and contradictory scenario from multiple perspectives, seeking examples of best practice teaching and critique. Organisers: This event is organized by Stevens Institute of Technology with the research organization AMPS. Publications: The conference publications form part of an international publishing network PARADE involving Routledge, Taylor&Francis, Intellect Books, UCL Press, Cambridge Scholars Publishing, Vernon Press and Libri Publishing.

ANU School of Sociology * Mary Lou Rasmussen ? ANU School of Sociology Symposium thematic: November 2018 will mark the one year anniversary of Australia?s yes ?vote? in the Marriage Equality Postal Survey. This vote represented a significant moment in the fight for LGBTIQ rights in Australia, as well as in global campaigns for marriage equality. Over the past decade there has been an increasing trend for countries to legislate for marriage equality, either through the passage of laws through Parliament, judicial decisions based on the principles of equality and non-discrimination, or through national votes. Despite this momentum, marriage equality remains a site of contention. Struggles over same sex marriage pose a distinct set of dilemmas, especially when governments determine the question using direct democracy. What are the implications of such processes for LGBTIQ people, their families and communities? What sorts of proxy debates erupt in relation to these ballots? What kinds of precedents do such ballots create? Coinciding with the first anniversary of the survey announcement in November 2017, this symposium engages with the legacy of the Australian, as well as international, campaigns for marriage equality. It will dive into debates about the value of marriage equality, the nature of marriage equality campaigns, and the value, or not, of public votes on rights-based issues. This symposium focuses on two overlapping streams: Marriage Campaigns and Marriage Debates We invite papers that interrogate the process of campaigning, as well as critiques and debates of marriage as an institution, and marriage equality as an issue for LGBTIQ communities. We welcome comparison regarding the different strategies used to pass marriage equality across the world. We also invite papers that interrogate votes, such as those in Australia and Ireland, and about the decision to settle rights-based questions using direct democracy and the resulting consequences for people within and outside targeted minorities. We invite contributions from all research levels, activists and community groups, and encourage the contributions of minority groups.

Dates: Thursday 2 August and Friday 3 August 2018 Event organisers: Professor Terry Flew (DMRC, QUT) and Dr Nina Li (IASH, UQ) Venue: Building Z9, Creative Industries Precinct, QUT Kelvin Grove, Musk Avenue, QLD 4059 Symposium Theme: The relationship between communication, culture and governance is becoming an increasingly important one in the East Asian region. Communications infrastructure is a central element of expansionary projects such as China?s Belt and Road initiative, and governments throughout the region are increasingly investing in digital content in order to promote cultural soft power, in Asia and globally. At the same time, phenomena such as ?fake news?, as well as privacy and data protection issues, are presenting new challenges for governance. Such issues arise at a time when international tensions are increasing, over economic, diplomatic, political and cultural issues. While there have been initiatives to build bridges, (for example Hollywood-China film co-productions), anti-China rhetoric by leaders such as U.S. President Donald Trump and the escalation of US-China tariff wars point to growing contestation and the potential for conflict that goes beyond national soft power competition. Where regional players in the Asian region, including Australia, will be situated in such an environment remains unclear. This symposium will involve a selected group of speakers and papers dealing with such questions, with a particular focus on China and the North-East Asian region. Topics for consideration include: * National media policies and cultural soft power aspirations * Global competition in communications infrastructure * Digital publics, counter-publics and cultural contestation * Digital media and new modes of political communication * New networks of production, distribution and consumption in the digital creative industries * Comparative studies of applications of AI, Blockchain and the Internet of Things, and uses/misuses of citizen data by digital platforms, governments and others. Confirmed speakers include: Professor Yu Hong (College of Media and Communication, Zhejiang University) Professor Michael Keane (Professor of Chinese Media, Curtin University) Associate Professor Trisha Lin (National ChengChi University, Taiwan) Dr Angela Xiao Wu (Department of Media, Culture and Communication, NYU Steinhardt) Dr Xiang Ren (Institute for Culture and Society, Western Sydney University) Dr Marko Skoric (City University of Hong Kong) Other speakers will be announced shortly. The event will be preceded by a Masterclass for Higher Degree Research students at QUT on 1 August 2018. Details of that event will be announced shortly. Call for papers: We invite 20 minute paper proposals, which engage with the symposium themes. Proposals should include a title, description (up to 300 words), and the name and contact details of each presenter, including institutional affiliation. Please send proposals to dmrc.digitalasia2018 at qut.edu.au Deadline for submission: Friday 22 June Acceptance advised: Friday 6 July The event is free to attend.
