Summary:This article highlights the roundtable discussion "Teaching for Change: Creating Knowledge, Transforming Institutions," organized by the Board of Directors of the Journal of Feminist Studies in Religion Inc. held in Cambridge, Massachusetts on June 10-14, 2005. The conference calls for creative collaboration over the next 20 years around the intersections of the academy and activism and the importance and challenges of connecting diverse global feminisms. It also calls for the need for new infrastructures necessary to carry on this work beyond the confines of the academy. Meanwhile, it presents seven reflections that highlight several critical challenges for the future of feminist pedagogical theory and praxis.
