Call for Papers

Under the theme of “Re-creating Leisure”, the 2023 LSA Conference will bring together an interdisciplinary field of researchers, educators, students, practitioners and policymakers to share visions, expertise, experiences to critically examine how leisure practices, spaces, and domains are theorised, researched, and experienced. Recent global events have dramatically underlined the significance of making sense of leisure in times of planetary upheaval.

We invite contributions in various topics related to:

      • Leisure and sustainability
      • Methodological innovations in leisure
      • Health and well-being
      • Leisure and place-making
      • Leisure in times of planetary upheaval
      • Leisure through entrepreneurship and innovation
      • Open Theme (within this stream, we invite papers that deal with themes of re-creating leisure that do not fit within the above-mentioned topics).
