Tema Genus  Seminars Spring semester 2013

Tema Genus Seminars are open seminars on the advanced level. They constitute a feminist arena for exchanging critical, intersectional and anti-discriminatory research, ideas and inspirations.

Every semester the seminar series consists of several types of events (i.e. more traditional open lectures followed by lively discussions, less conventional mini-symposiums, as well as PhD students' seminars and defences) which all aim at creating transversal dialogues among researchers who are at different stages of their academic, activist or artistic path.

In this way, Tema Genus Seminars give rise to constructive thoughts, creative alliances and possible future collaborations.
