Gender & Sexuality Research Cluster
The Gender & Sexuality Research Cluster brings together members of the
University community whose work involves Gender and Sexuality.
Our research spans a range of areas relating to gender and sexuality in
politics and society. We seek to understand and challenge gender
inequality around the world and to contest the ongoing subordination of
gender and sexual minorities. We are committed to ‘mainstreaming’
gender concerns in higher education curricula and seek to work together
with students on this issue.
This is an interdisciplinary cluster bringing together PoLIS staff in
the fields of political science, policy analysis, political sociology,
cultural studies, international relations and security. We also serve
as a network for staff researching in areas relating to gender and
sexuality across the University.
What we do
We organise a range of activities that include:
* a seminar series running over both Semester of each academic
session
* support conferences
* presentations
The Cluster holds a regular reading group. The next reading group will
be on Thursday 20th September 2018, 13.15, Claverton rooms. Contact Dr
Fran Amery for further details.
