Leisure Studies Association Annual Conference 2021. Leisure identities, health and wellbeing: conference review

Abstract

The Leisure Studies Association Annual Conference 2021 brought together scholars and practitioners from several disciplines to discuss leisure, health, and wellness, and the significance of leisure in creating a more equitable world. Alongside these main themes, oral presentations related to other areas of leisure were also included. Across the three-day online conference, there were 70 presentations from delegates across sixteen countries. These presentations, plus the panel session and keynotes, made a significant contribution to the leisure studies field. The conference was successful in terms of sharing research and expertise, generating discussion, dialogue, and debate, and considering future research collaborations.
