This multidisciplinary conference wants to contribute to the understanding of the causes, consequences and the dynamics of inequality along socio-demographic lines in contemporary societies and of the policies to combat it. It addresses grounds of inequality such as gender, ethnicity, sexual preference, disability, class, and age, as well as their comparison and intersection. Reflecting different disciplinary perspectives, the conference is structured in four streams: the law, public policies, organisations and the life course. Each stream has its own specific call, which can be found on the conference website:

Stream 1: Law is not enough
Stream 2: Challenging differences and inequalities in and through policies
Stream 3: Equal Opportunities throughout the life course
Stream 4: Diversity is not enough: Interrogating difference and inequality in organisations

Key note speeches will be given by Prof. dr. Myra Marx Ferree (University of Wisconsin, US), Prof. dr. Sara Ahmed (Goldsmiths, University of London, England) and Prof. dr. Christa Tobler (Leiden University, the Netherlands).

Abstracts should be sent to equalisnotenough@ua.ac.be by 1 March 2010 at the latest. All information can be found on the conference website: www.equalisnotenough.org.
