Need ticket to view.

Our first Gender Matters event this Fall will be a roundtable discussion featuring faculty, staff, and students discussing our experiences and strategies that have been helpful for keeping us safe over the years.

Join us on September 27th 12pm-1pm.

This is an in-person event:

Threats of violence or intimidation efforts on campuses are not new for intersectionally marginalized groups. In the aftermath of the hateful attack at the University of Waterloo campus in June, there has been increased attention to safety at campuses across the country. As the Department of Gender Studies strives to create positive change in the institution, we also know that this has been a part of the invisible emotional labour for a long time. Many of us in the Gender Studies community have been strategizing to mitigate possible risks since the inception of the department. With this roundtable, we would like to create space to bring our collective attention to the ways we have been keeping each other safe.

Roundtable with Gender Studies Campus Community: How do we keep each other safe?
