Women and Gender Studies Programs
Women and Gender Studies programs explore how gender shapes individual experiences, social structures, and cultural norms. They examine issues related to gender identity, inequality, and power dynamics, often focusing on women's roles and contributions, but also including LGBTQ+ perspectives and men's experiences. The goal is to foster critical thinking about gender and promote social justice. These programs analyze history, literature, politics, and society to understand how gender influences opportunities and challenges, aiming to create a more equitable and inclusive society.
