10th Interdisciplinary Conference on Child and Teen Consumption. 4 – 6 May 2022, Madrid, Spain.

Deadline for submissions: November 30, 2021

Conference Chair: Patricia Núñez Gómez

The future of childhood is now.

The 2022 edition of the Child and Teen Consumption Conference will be held in Madrid (Spain) in hybrid format and will be hosted by the Complutense University of Madrid. Since 2004, previous conferences have been held every two years in countries such as France, Italy, Denmark, Sweden, Norway or Scotland. In 2020 the conference had to be cancelled because of the pandemic and would have been held in the United States.

The theme of the 10th Child and Teen Consumption Conference is The future of childhood is now. The changes we are experiencing on social, economic, technological and health levels make it necessary to study the role of children and adolescents from the vantage point of their reality, from all the spheres that affect them and bearing in mind the future we want for them and the one they want for themselves. As in previous editions, we want to open the debate on how the role of children and adolescents is changing in our society and look beyond.
