The event moves deliberately from conference to unconference: Friday and Saturday morning feature concurrent paper sessions and a keynote, before shifting into alternative-format sessions and a plenary panel. Sunday opens into embodied practice sessions and a co-thinking retreat space. The event is free of charge.\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: left\">\n<font style=\"font-size:22px;letter-spacing:1pt\"><b>Why Together?<\/b><\/font><br \/>\nThe pairing of these two events is not accidental. A recurring insight from BHE participants, which has been echoed across our yearly unconferences, is that the material, living body is not a specialty to be cordoned off alongside other subfields, but a thread running through all of critical geography. Life itself\u2014how it is sustained, harmed, governed, and reimagined\u2014is always already political, ecological, and geographic. This gathering is an experiment in taking that seriously. It brings the full range of critical geographic inquiry into conversation with BHE\u2019s cross-epistemological community. We close on Sunday with an open retreat space that invites anyone who wants to stay to co-think\/write about what a more expansive and relational critical geography might look like.<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: left\">\n<font style=\"font-size:18px;letter-spacing:1pt\"><b>All events will be held in <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.temple.edu\/bheandcg2026\/directions\/\"><b>Gladfelter Hall<\/b><\/a>, Temple University<\/b><\/font>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear: both\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;border: 2px solid #000000;padding:10px;margin-top:15px;font-size:18px\">\nFor questions or comments, please email <a href=\"mailto:anhc@temple.edu\"><b>Allison Hayes-Conroy<\/b><\/a> (anhc@temple.edu)\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"padding-top:50px;width:100%\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.temple.edu\/bheandcg2026\/files\/2026\/04\/GEUS_4C_Red_Black_Horiz_2long-1-scaled.jpg\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Please join us in Philadelphia for a meeting double-header: the Critical Geographies Mini-Conference and the Bodies, Health, and Environments (BHE) Unconference, April 24\u201326, 2026 at Temple University!
