"Stop Trying to Make Piaget Happen" with Fernando Salinas-Quiroz, 11/5
48 Professors Row
Join us November 5 at 4:30 pm for a special conversation about nonbinary childrens’ self-understanding, and how that relates to models of childhood development.
Professor Salinas-Quiroz’s research centers trans and nonbinary children and youth, focusing on how they imagine, inhabit, and transform gender, family, and belonging. She works alongside young people to challenge the rigid binaries that limit their lives, and sees research as a space for co-creation, joy, and justice.
Through transdisciplinary approaches, Salinas-Quiroz seeks to expand our understanding of change—not as a fixed "path of development," but as the complex, shifting, and plural ways children and communities grow. At the core, their scholarship asks how we can build worlds where trans and queer youth not only exist, but thrive.
All are welcome. Light refreshments will be served.
