Comparative Case Studies of Women’s Activism and Scholarship

The ‘Global Feminisms Project’ is a collaborative international project that examines the history of feminist activism, women’s movements and academic women’s studies in China, India, Poland, and the United States. We are examining the histories of feminism in local contexts by collecting ten videotaped oral histories of women’s movement activists and women’s studies scholars in each country. The Project is based in the Institute for Research on Women and Gender (IRWG) at UM, which is also the home for the US site research team. (On Homepage).

As an intrinsic dimension of the Centre’s commitment to focus on issues of discrimination and enhancing gender equality, members of the centre have been active in the fields of advocacy, whether through lobbying with and against the State and its policies, forming common platforms with other organizations and civil society institutions, and assisting in campaigns to bring about changes in public awareness.  The Centre has been actively developing many networks to carry forward these processes.  Over the last year, the faculty of the centre have been members of and initiators among networks of women’s organizations and women’s studies associations on a range of issues.
