9:45-10:00 Welcome with coffee & tea
10:00-12:00 Panel I: Fieldwork
In this panel, we reflect on the different forms of fieldwork undertaken by ASCA researchers, the issues that fieldwork can bring up (in "normal" times and in times of Covid or war), and the notion of the "field" (what/where is it and how do we account for the colonial history of the idea of the "field"?). Speakers will give short (max. 8 minutes) presentations, followed by a discussion involving the audience.

14:00-16:00 Panel II: (Re)Emerging Fields
In this panel, we introduce some of ASCA's new research groups and reflect on what (re)emerging fields these research groups are linked to, broadening out to a discussion of what we mean by "research fields" and what currency terms like "new" and "emerging" have in academic research. Speakers will give short (max. 8 minutes) presentations, followed by a discussion involving the audience.
