Fay Gale Lunchtime Seminar

Our next Fay Gale Centre Lunchtime Seminar will be presented by Professor Catherine Driscoll (University of Sydney) along with some members of the ‘Affirmative Feminist Boys Studies Group’. The group was formed to consider how to develop the emerging field of boys’ studies without sidelining the values of feminism and girls’ studies. Led by Professor Driscoll, the research team, which includes academics from the University of Sydney and the University of Technology, Sydney are addressing what Driscoll sees as “The popular sense that an unbridgeable chasm lies between feminists and those concerned about boys [and this] is both a cultural and intellectual problem.” Feel free to bring your lunch or join via zoom. When: Wednesday, 30 March, 12.30-1.30pm. Where: Napier G25. More information (and zoom link) here.
