A colloquium considering the politics, art and ethics of writing about injustice

18 May 2011, Capital Centre,

Milburn House, University of Warwick

The Writing Wrongs Colloquium will bring together professionals who are writing about wrongs from intersecting disciplines. The aim will be to explore our themes in an intimate environment with a view to developing a plan for the future direction of our project. This is to establish a permanent nucleus at Warwick where students, teachers, writers, and general activists and practitioners can develop, publish, exchange and share their creative work against wrongs.
