Background<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A UW System Center of Excellence, UWM\u2019s Center for 21st<\/sup> Century Studies (C21) builds a community of scholars to address the pressing issues of our time.\u202fEach year, C21 offers fellowships to UWM faculty and academic staff, as well as UW System faculty, that provide the time, space, and collegial support to generate new knowledge and ideas. C21 centers the humanities in its belief that innovation comes from diversity of opinions, disciplines, and experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Theme<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In dialogue with our advisory council and community partners, C21 has identified SLOW as the theme that will inform our offerings for three years (2024-2027).<\/strong> Slow movements\u2014across food, cities, science, scholarship and beyond \u2014 call attention to embodied processes of building and maintaining collective life that resist the fast-paced efficiency models, rapid rewards, and short attention spans that increasingly dominate human responses to 21st\u202f<\/sup>century social, political, and ecological challenges.\u202fThe theme is intentionally broad to capture a wide range of scholarship and practice while encouraging innovative methodologies.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

C21\u2019s 2025-2026 programming focuses on<\/strong> SLOW CARE.<\/strong> Across health, climate, labor, technology and more, we ask how pacing affects the institutions, policies, cultural infrastructures, and social and political processes that support or disassemble an ethic of care. We welcome multiple interpretations of this open topic, including explorations of time, pace, and speed as they relate to pressing issues of our time and\/or work inside and outside the university. Methodological, pedagogical, and research topical interests are all welcome in relation to this theme.\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n
