Knowledge Exchange
The Center for the Study of Child Care Employment at University of California, Berkeley is seeking speakers to participate in a brown bag lecture series focused on the labor conditions and career preparation of early childhood educators (e.g., day care workers, nannies). Possible topics may include: ethnographic or population-based research on the workplace, health, or labor conditions of these educators; facilitators and barriers to workforce training, and policy issues and labor activism regarding child care employment. We also welcome presentations on methodological issues particular to other workers who are hard to reach and/or are difficult to enumerate.

Transgender Communities Course
In Fall 2019, I will be teaching an upper division anthropology course focused on transgender communities in historical and cross-cultural perspective. I am hoping to arrange a diverse group of speakers with experience in diverse US and non-US contexts who would share their experiences/work.engagement as relates to the course theme.
Speakers would have 30-60 minutes and would participate via Skype or Google Handouts. The format and content would be up to you and could include videos, panels, activities or anything you think would resonate with students at Portland State University.
If you are interested in participating in the course, please send me an email at chklein@pdx.edu. Feel free to share this invitation to others in your networks who you think might be interested in this opportunity.
