We have assembled a team of 20 enthusiastic participants, who are taking part in a series of seminars discussing the theory, experience, and achievements of gender studies from a green policy perspective. This project will culminate in an international conference held in October.
About the Event:
GEF together with the Green Thought Association is launching a year-long project on gender equality and green politics. Selected participants take part in monthly expert and activist workshops, building knowledge and creating video content on selected topics for wider dissemination.
The next workshop will be held online on July 25th, featuring as speakers Rümeysa Çamdereli and Burcu Kalpakoğlu .
The topic that will be covered is: “Feminism through a belief perspective”.
Context:
Workshops are open to selected applicants only and are held in Turkish, but will culminate in a larger conference in October that includes the participation of international speakers as well.
Speakers:
This seminar is led by Rümeysa Çamdereli and Burcu Kalpakoğlu, from Havle Women’s Association which is Turkey’s first feminist Muslim Women’s Association. This organization was born in 2018 out of a need for a roof where feminist women from different Muslim women’s organizations can come together and produce information and policy within a Muslim feminist framework.
