Join us for a rich interdisciplinary discussion over some coffee and tea! Everyone is welcome, from faculty, graduate students and practitioners. In this first Scholar’s Cafe, we will be engaging with the topic: Gender matters for environment and development: past, present and future tendencies.
More specifically, we will be discussing how the ideas around gender and its role in development have changed significantly since the 80s. We will be shedding light on some of these questions: What is gender about today? Is it about empowering women to gain access and control over natural resources? Is it about the need for a more systematic inclusion of gender analysis when we think about environment and development?
- Date: December 3, at 3:00 pm.
- Location: 3rd floor Boardroom (Liu Institute for Global Issues).
