What is the status for gender, sexuality and diversity research today? Where should we head in the future? We find ourselves in troubled times. Right-wing political pressure and strong anti-gender sentiments threaten diversity, equality and inclusion policies and democracy alike; there is a pushback on LGB, queer, trans and women's rights and increased animosity against migrants, and we are facing escalating economic differences, privatization of common goods, neo-imperialism, land- and sea grab, climate change, huge technological shifts, wars and militarization.
In connection with SKOK’s 25th anniversary in 2025, we have invited some of our most exciting national and international collaborators through the years to address various aspects of our present and future predicaments at our symposium: Gender research in troubled times (09:00-16:40). After the symposium, we'll have a reception where everyone's welcome.
The event is free and open for all, but since we will be serving food, registration is required.
