Together with ASST, WIDE, and GessWho, we are organizing a department-wide New Year’s Gathering.
We welcome all DGESS staff and students to join us!
Stay tuned for more details!
The seminar will bring together scholars from law, political science, computational social science, and sociology to examine how digital spaces can mirror and amplify existing gender inequalities. Discussions will address the economic, social, political, and legal aspects of online gender discrimination, as well as policy responses.
Panel Topics:
Digital Spaces and Their Role in Amplifying Gender Inequality
with Mariana Valente, University of St. Gallen
with David Garcia, University of Konstanz & ETH Zurich
with Sofia Kypraiou, Université de Neuchâtel & Think Tank Women At The Table
Policy Responses and Ethical Considerations in Combating Online Gender-Based Violence
with Olga Jurasz, The Open University
with Kebene Wodajo, ETH Zurich
with Shanley Clemot McLaren, Gender and Digital Policy Advisor at the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs
A cocktail reception will follow from 6:15 to 7:15 pm
With the assertiveness coach Alessandra Patti, we will learn key and practical skills related to assertive communication styles. The workshop will also offer strategies to manage anxiety, build confidence, and assert your needs, even in challenging situations.
