Institute of Criminology IWD Hybrid Research Seminar: 'Many Women, Many Feminisms: Varied Responses to Violence against Women'

Speakers: Dr Adrija Dey, Professor Miranda Horvath, & Dr Zeynep Kaya.

With its roots in socialist feminist activism, International Women’s Day (IWD) was first celebrated over a century ago to demand liberation for women in cultural, political and material terms. In its ethos and orientation, IWD is aimed at working towards the emancipation of the global majority of women, whose gender-based subordination is shaped by intersecting structures of inequality such as race, class and nationality. This understanding of gender as being inextricably enmeshed in other inequalities has not permeated the field of feminist criminology…

Against this background, we are delighted to invite you to a conversation among the invited experts, which will draw upon case studies from a range of contexts, including India, Iraq, England and Wales, and will focus attention on the experiences of multiply marginalised women. The event will be conducted in the form of an interview with the speakers, followed by interaction with members of the audience.”

This seminar is free & open to all interested in attending. Please visit the website for registration link and more details.
