Dear all,

INCISE (the Intersectional Centre for Inclusion and Social Justice, http://incise.center) welcomes you to two lunchtime seminars next week:

Monday 23 October, 12:15 in Jg08

A public talk by Professor Bee Scherer

Social Engagement, Gender & Sexuality: Issues in Buddhist Ethics part of the INCISE Buddhism & Social Justice Series.

Book tickets (free): http://www.canterbury.ac.uk/arts-and-culture/event-details.aspx?instance=180004 (or simply come along).

In this lunch time seminar, Prof. Bee Scherer investigates how Buddhist virtue ethics and social engagement shape value productions around Gender and Sexuality.

How did South Asian Buddhist attitudes towards gender and sexuality/-ies develop and transform through time and space?

Which philosophical and cultural frameworks and paradigms aid, limit or obstruct sexual and gender justice in Buddhisms?

Thursday 26 October, 13:00 in Lg46 for Intersex Awareness Day

A public talk by Peter Walker

Intersex: Medical and Social Justice Issues

Book tickets (free): http://www.canterbury.ac.uk/arts-and-culture/event-details.aspx?instance=180204 (or simply come along).

In this lunchtime talk for Intersex Awareness Day, INCISE PhD researcher Peter Walker talks about the wide range of biological traits subsumed under the term ‘intersexuality’ from medical and social justice perspectives.

How does ‘Intersex’ relate to ‘Trans*’? What are the challenges that people who are intersexual face throughout their lives? What are the parameters of Intersex solidarity?

We hope to see many of you next week!

I hope you are well and having a great term so far. I am pleased to confirm we have received funding to continue offering a free Student Art Pass to your Fine Art, Creative Arts & Design students again this year – providing them with free access to over 240 museums, galleries and historic houses across the UK, and 50% off major exhibitions.For the first time this year, we are also able to offer a Student Art Pass to any full-time student, studying any subject at Canterbury Christ Church University for just £5 a year. This is in response to research we carried out this year which showed that two thirds of all UK students – not just arts students – would want a pass. The £5 pass enables us to increase the scale and impact of the scheme without having to rely on receiving funding each year – helping ever more students’ money go further when visiting museums and galleries. The offer is open until 10 December.Visual/wording aids to help spread the wordIdeally we’d like as many students as possible to be made aware of this opportunity before it closes in December, so any help you can give would be hugely appreciated. • £5 pass: All visual assets and wording to help promote the £5 Student Art Pass (we have a slightly different approach for these as you’ll see) across your web, email and social channels can be found here: https://we.tl/WXi6KRpYDc • Free pass: I have put the visual assets and wording below to promote the free pass • Both passes: For ease, I’ve also popped the landing pages for both passes below.£5 PASS: Link for full-time Canterbury Christ Church students studying anything (except Fine Art, Creative Arts & Design and Philosophy of Art) is:https://www.artfund.org/student Where possible, it would be great if you could include this tracking:https://www.artfund.org/student?utm_source=email&utm_medium=university&utm_campaign=cccu_SAPFREE PASS: Messaging, Link + Visual assets for Fine Art, History and Philosophy of Art students-only:Visual Asset: Download images of the Student Art Pass itself here: https://we.tl/kA9iEDSaTJ Text:Apply for a free Student Art Pass Explore world-class museums all over the UK and enjoy a year of endless inspiration with friends, for your studies, or just for you.

Plus, grab a tasty refreshment or memento at a bargain price with loads of café and shop discounts too.The Student Art Pass is available for free to CANTERBURY CHRIST CHURCH Fine Art students, thanks to the generous funding of a private donor.
