Event Program
During the first day of the Gender Expansive Live Streaming Symposium we will convene ten guest experts with a select group of researchers and practitioners in a comfy workshop environment for lively discourse around the topic. On the second day, we will hold a public conference featuring a series of keynotes, panels, and lightning talks given by the workshop participants.
