The study of vulnerability and in\/security is an emergent, flexible, and multidisciplinary field. It draws on and is used in a wide range of subject areas including geography, economics, environmental studies, law, criminology, politics, public health, psychology, social justice, and sociology. It is predominantly used as a term to denote weakness of susceptibility to harm and is often used in conjunction with work in development, environmental and disaster studies with the aim of reducing risk and improving resilience. However, vulnerability is often overlooked in public policies and international relations.<\/p>\n

The Vulnerability Studies Network seeks to answer the following questions:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. How is vulnerability mobilised as a concept in different disciplinary contexts?<\/li>\n
  2. What are the processes (political, legal, civic, social) by which vulnerability and insecurity are \u2018assessed\u2019, \u2018measured\u2019 and \u2018distributed\u2019?<\/li>\n
  3. How might individual and collective vulnerability and insecurity open up spaces for resistance, empowerment, and solidarity?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
