This session explores how feminist geographies inform social change through themes of pedagogy, embodiment, resistance, and spatial justice. Presenters draw on diverse methods—from oral histories and narrative cartography to decolonial dance research—to highlight care, collaboration, and activism across academic and community contexts.
