Summer School "Multi-Perspectivity in Gender Studies? Reviewing the Gender Studies Curricula from Southern and Northern Perspectives", 23/24.06.25
Summer School "Multi-Perspectivity in Gender Studies? Reviewing the Gender Studies Curricula from Southern and Northern Perspectives", 23/24.06.25
By the Centre for Interdisciplinary Women's and Gender Studies (ZFG) at the University of Oldenburg (Germany) and the Centre for Women and Gender Studies (CWGS) and DSI-NRF SARChI Chair in African Feminist Imagination Nelson Mandela University (South Africa)
In times of increasing nationalisation and isolation, the Summer School addresses the important question of how transnational academic cooperation, here in the context of gender studies, is possible and can be shaped in a meaningful and solidary way. These questions are linked to discourses of transnational feminisms and their demands for the decolonisation of knowledge and, at the same time, take on a current urgency due to local and global attacks on academic freedom in general and gender studies in particular.
