CALL FOR PAPERS: REPRODUCTIVE JUSTICE DISCUSSION GROUP (SEALS 2022) 

We are seeking participants for a proposed discussion group for next year's Southeastern Association of Law School’s (SEALS) conference, to be held at the Sandestin Resort in Florida from July 27-August 3, 2022. 

As the scope of constitutional protection for abortion rapidly shifts, assisted reproductive technologies continue to evolve and expand, and renewed energy is invigorating conversations about longstanding disparities in reproductive healthcare and access, the time for creative and meaningful engagement in reproductive justice scholarship has never been more urgent. This discussion group will provide an opportunity for participants to discuss early stage drafts and works-in-progress around a broad range of reproductive justice topics. 

Questions may be directed to Meghan Boone or Seema Mohapatra. Interested participants should send a one-page abstract or proposal to Meghan Boone at boonem@wfu.edu or Seema Mohapatra smohapatra@smu.edu by October 25, 2021. Consistent with the values of SEALS, the organizers will endeavor to make the group a diverse one and to welcome new and junior scholars.
