Women’s Studies Now!
From the climate emergency through attacks on women’s bodily autonomy to the place of gender in far-right populist discourse, Women’s Studies is uniquely placed to shine a critical light on some of the most urgent topics facing the world today. To this end, York’s Centre for Women’s Studies is delighted to announce a new research seminar series that will run in the academic year 2022-2023: Women’s Studies Now! As well as exploring many such critical topics, Women’s Studies Now! brings together some of the cutting-edge feminist research being conducted at the University of York and beyond.
