Critical Gender Studies Network (CGSN)
Critical Gender Studies Network (CGSN) is an international network of scholars, activists, and practitioners who are committed to advancing new debates and promoting activism in gender studies. CGSN aims to explore how gender and sexuality shape and are shaped by various social, cultural, historical, and political contexts. It also examines how gender and sexuality intersect with other aspects of identity, such as race, class, ethnicity, religion, disability, and nationality. It seeks to challenge the assumptions and norms that underlie gender and sexual relations and to promote social justice and equality for all people.
The aims and objectives of the CGSG are to:
- Foster collaboration and exchange among critical gender studies researchers, educators, and practitioners across disciplines, regions, and sectors.
- Support the development and dissemination of critical gender studies scholarship, pedagogy, and activism that is rigorous, innovative, and relevant to contemporary issues and challenges.
- Advocate for the recognition and inclusion of critical gender studies perspectives and methodologies in academic, policy, and public spheres.
- Engage with diverse communities and stakeholders to raise awareness and foster dialogue on gender and sexuality issues and their implications for social justice and equality.
- Provide mentorship and training opportunities for emerging and established critical gender studies scholars and practitioners.
