The Department of Sport and Event Management and the Sport and Physical Activity Research Centre (SPARC) are hosting the Leisure Studies Association (LSA) Annual Conference between the 11th and 13th of July.
The conference, titled “Re-creating Leisure”, follows on from the successful 2015 LSA conference held at Bournemouth. Since then, global events have further and dramatically highlighted the significance of making sense of leisure in times of planetary upheaval. The conference will bring together an interdisciplinary field of researchers, educators, students, practitioners, and policymakers to share visions, expertise, and experiences to critically examine how leisure practices, spaces, and domains are theorised, researched, and experienced within this context.
The LSA conference plenary session topics will include Sustainability, Methodological Innovations, Health and Well-being, Placemaking, Leisure and Planetary Upheaval, Entrepreneurship, and Innovation.
The conference is being held at the Executive Business Centre, and will begin at 10 am on Tuesday 11 July and will consist of two and half days of conference programming with a closing lunch on Thursday 13 July. There will also be a comprehensive social programme.
The final call for papers will close on Friday 7 April – Further details can be found here
