Women's Studies

Women’s Studies is an interdisciplinary field that examines the roles, experiences, and contributions of women in society. It explores issues such as gender inequality, feminism, and the social, cultural, and political factors affecting women’s lives. In the context of feminist ethics, it critiques traditional moral theories for overlooking women’s perspectives and values, emphasizing relationality, care, and social justice. The goal is to challenge oppressive structures and promote equity, understanding how gender intersects with race, class, sexuality, and other identities to shape individual and collective experiences.
