Call for papers - ‘Intersectional and Critical #ADHD Thought: ADHDers Think Back’, for a special issue of the Canadian Journal of Disability Studies. [ETA: The abstract deadline has been EXTENDED till 25th Feb 2024.] The editors are seeking critical intersectional papers that “‘think back’, explicitly or implicitly, against medical and denialist models of ADHD.”
“At this point, it is fair to conclude that ADHD Studies is an acritical and non intersectional field, produced by non-ADHDers. What we need is critical and intersectional ADHD knowledge produced by ADHDers themselves.”
Submissions are welcomed from academics, PhD students and activists. See the CfP for a great list of topics, from “Trans-ing while ADHD-ing: questions for intersectional justice,” to critical approaches to ADHD and religious faith.
@EVDHmn@theADHDAcademic The deadline has been extended to Feb 2025. I just edited my post - sorry, I didn’t see that the website hadn’t been updated to show this. They emailed to let people in their networks know. I expect they will update the website soon

🧐I saw this and boosted but wanted to check our group. heads up I know a lot of us have adhd and may have insight to this topic just thought people are always wanting to give meaningful feedback that can be logistically implemented and that scales for different applications…eco friendly applications, culturally diverse, perhaps a chance to have a voice! Sounds like a project…just my pov .going to be a learning curve, anyone have experience?
@EVDHmn@theADHDAcademic@actuallyautistic Can I ask you to field questions to the organisers? I just shared to spread the word. I don’t know anything about the project beyond having heard it’s happening
I was just talking to my partner who is adhd as well fmg grad..tech writer…we have learned so much from the community.
Hopefully we can attain some workable solutions as a team that understands some of the hurdles, perhaps help contribure to pave the way to an inclusive diverse landscape!
Either way it should be a fun project!
