From finding quality childcare-especially when a child is ill-to having time for oneself, multiple and competing demands confront women who have children and work outside the home. This special session is designed to provide a relaxed forum for such women to come together, connect with one another, and share their stories. This session will be loosely organized around audience-generated discussions covering common concerns, coping strategies, and suggestions for institutionalizing family friendlier policies within the AAA and beyond. Barbara Rose Johnston (Center for Political Ecology) and Rosemary Joyce (UC-Berkeley) will facilitate discussion. COSWA warmly invites children to this family-friendly session; as mother-anthropologists create support networks among themselves, their children can make new friends, too.</SPAN></FONT></P> <p><strong>Workshop Leaders</strong></p> <P class=MsoNormal><B><I><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=2><SPAN>Barbara Rose Johnston</SPAN></FONT></I></B><FONT size=2><SPAN> (Senior Research Fellow, Center for Political Ecology) does action-research on human rights and the environment.
