FEMCIT Research Dissemination Seminar "Gendered Citizenship in Multicultural Europe: Issues, Challenges, Visions"
22 April 2010, Brussels, FEMCIT is the research project Gendered Citizenship in Multicultural Europe: The Impact of Contemporary Women’s Movements. The FEMCIT project explores the relationship between the changing forms and practices of gendered citizenship, and women’s movements in various European countries over the last forty years. FEMCIT is a four-year
project (2007-2011) and is funded under the Sixth Framework Program of the European Commission.
The seminar will bring together policy makers, politicians, NGOs, and researchers to discuss central questions of current European policy-making, such as:
• What are the challenges faced by women representatives in political life?
• How do the categories of ethnicity and gender intersect in work-life?
• How has intimate life been transformed for those living outside of conventional
families?
• What does citizenship mean for women from specific ethnic backgrounds?
