Gender Studies

Gender Studies is an interdisciplinary field that examines the roles, experiences, and constructions of gender in various contexts. It explores how gender identities and relations intersect with other social categories, such as race, class, sexuality, and nationality. The field critically analyzes the cultural, social, and historical factors shaping gender norms, expectations, and inequalities. Gender Studies incorporates perspectives from sociology, psychology, literature, politics, anthropology, and cultural studies, aiming to understand and challenge the societal structures that contribute to gender-based discrimination and inequality. It also focuses on the lived experiences of individuals across the gender spectrum, advocating for social justice and equity.
