The third CERC conference brought together care ethicists and scholars; artists, designers, and makers; artistic researchers; performers and philosophers; educators; policymakers; and others to explore a fundamental question: What did it mean to care? The on-site conference featured plenary lectures, performances, artworks, a special roundtable on care ethics and care aesthetics, as well as paper presentations and artistic contributions from approximately 130 scholars and artists on the theme of “Care, Aesthetics, and Repair.” In addition to the on-site conference, two online days with presentations by more than one hundred additional scholars were held across three different time zones on January 30-31, 2025.
