2021
Radboud Gender & Diversity Studies is the organiser of the annual celebration of International Women's day. On Monday March 8th, 2021, professor dr. Wendy Harcourt spoke on Gender Dimensions in Climate Change. Dr. Irene Dankelman responded to this presentation.
This year the celebration was offered online and about 180 participants listened to the presentations and interacted in the chat, asking questions and sharing information. A recording of the presentations is available here. The information in the chat can be found here (docx, 17 kB).
Traditionally we offer a lunch to all employees of the Radboud University. Due to Covid-19 measures this was not possible and we replaced it with a virtual information market with networks and organisations that are closely related to the work of Radboud Gender & Diversity Studies.
- Women on the Timelineis a project initiated by Anouk Wolkotte and Charlotte Hermanns that aims to redirect the spotlight and let women shine bright. They introduce the project and invited the audience to a brainstorming session to think together, learn from each other and help each other.
- Radboud University Network on Migrant Inclusion (RUNOMI) is an interfaculty network that aims to intensify collaboration in research, teaching and partnerships with societal actors in the domain of migrant inclusion studies. Linda Sloane informed the audience about RUNOMI-researchers who work on gender dimensions in migration issues.
