<span style="font-weight: normal;">The discipline of cultural studies has been regarded as a site of understanding culture and resistance. Stuart Hall claimed that people need a language to speak about where they are, and what possible futures are available
to them. At the <a href="https://www.globalindigenousfutures.com/" target="_blank" id="OWAcbec8b20-8963-9a9f-4087-86c9451d49cb" class="OWAAutoLink" style="padding-bottom: 0.05em;">Centre for Global Indigenous Futures</a> and the Department of Critical Indigenous
Studies on Wallumattagal Campus (MQ), Dharug Country, we focus the studies of culture within an anti-colonial language and praxis. In November 2024 we look forward to you joining us to explore what this means across the broader discipline of Cultural Studies. </span></div>

This will mark the first time an Indigenous-centred site has hosted the CSAA conference. Across Cultural Studies we make choices in how our practice upholds or challenges colonialities, on how we look to the past, engage the now, and anticipate and map expansive
futures. As we come together in this conference, we will ask those presenting to address the theme of CSAA2024 in either specific or broad strokes.</div>

<br>
While the conference will be configured largely around a traditional presentation format, we welcome the chance to explore the possibility of including other formats (including but not limited to the presentation of NTROs: non-traditional research outputs)
with potential conference contributors.<br>
<br>
We invite papers that address anti-colonial futures and representation across the following suggested themes, as well as across all areas of cultural studies:</span></div>
