Anthropology of Children and Youth Interest Group
The Anthropology of Children and Youth Interest Group (ACYIG) is pleased to announce the launch of Collaborative Research Networks (CRNs). Modeled after Law and Society’s research networks, CRNs provide an opportunity for ACYIG members to develop and lead inter-disciplinary groups of scholars, practitioners, and students around specific thematic interests. Collaborative Research Networks may involve activities such as email groups, listservs, calls to action, op-eds, organizing conference panels, etc.
ACYIG requires that the CRNs contribute to scholarly issues relevant to ACYIG membership and be led by an active ACYIG member. ACYIG strongly encourages inter-disciplinary and international membership. Membership within CRNs is open to the public.
