'International Gender Congress', Istanbul, Turkey
The concept of gender deals with women's and men's place in society as well as related social expectations. Gender relations vary from one country to another and are strongly rooted in history. Academic studies in this field have expanded after the establishment of 'Gender Studies Programmes' in major universities worldwide since the 1980s.
The conference will bring together students and academics to enable exchange of information and the publication of new studies, to raise awareness on gender issues, to discuss the cultural differences between generations to analyse interactions between gender and other phenomena.For further information, please visit:
