Gender and Diversity: A World of Difference

Key questions:
What is the problem with inequality? Which historical, linguistic and cultural processes, both within and outside organisations, perpetuate inequalities dynamics such as gender, sexuality, race/ethnicity, religion, age, and language?

Coordinator:
Prof. dr. Liedeke Plate (l.plate@let.ru.nl)

General information
