    workshops aimed to facilitate cross generational and cross institutional collaboration that

    transgress traditional intellectual boundaries, providing dialogues about how to develop

    dynamic projects in research and working life. Topics of the workshops will include

    publishing, geographies of education, gender and activism, and coping with research

    dilemmas.

    3) Paper workshops with keynote speaker(s) and gender experts/professors in which

    students can discuss their papers (to be submitted before the conference). These

    workshops provide an intellectually inspiring forum for constructive dialogues around

    ongoing research projects in small groups in an informal setting together with gender

    scholars and peer students.

    graduates are welcome to participate in the Students Day.
