Webinar: Violence and Organization

06/25/2020 01:00 pm 06/25/2020 02:30 pm Australia/Melbourne Webinar: Violence and Organization

Critical Reorientations of Organisation and Society (CROS), a research group which sits within Monash Business School’s Department of Management, invites you to a critical exploration of violence within organisations.

Underscored by extreme COVID-19 pandemic experiences (such as the impact on supply chain workers and the documented rise in domestic violence), this event will focus on modern slavery and gendered violence.

These urgent concerns in business and society provide a platform to explore violence in today's organisations and organisational responses to the attitudes, beliefs and actions that enable such violence.

The panellists are researchers/scholars/practitioners in the area of gendered/domestic violence as well as modern slavery. In addition to this, there will be a focus on activism and practice related to the topic.

Our panel includes:

  • Marie Segrave, Monash University, Associate Professor, criminologist and researcher with the Monash Gender and Family Violence Prevention Centre, and the Monash Migration and Inclusion Centre
  • Jacqui True, FASSA, Professor of International Relations and Director of Monash University’s Centre for Gender, Peace and Security, and a Global Fellow at the Peace Research Institute (Oslo)
  • Pia Cerveri, Co-Lead of the Women’s Team at the Victorian Trades Hall Council
  • Lara Watson, a Birri Gubba woman from Central West Queensland, and an Indigenous officer with Australian Council of Trade Unions (ACTU)

The discussant for this session will be Dr Fahreen Alamgir, Lecturer in the Department of Management, Monash Business School.

CROS members explore areas of work, organisational and economic life that are often overlooked. In particular we seek to challenge aspects of organisational life (broadly defined) that are taken for granted, that may deliberately or inadvertently privilege some stakeholders while marginalising other important voices. Organisers for this session are Associate Professor Michelle Greenwood, Dr Susan Mayson, Dr Laura Visser and Jordan Brown.
