Women’s Studies

Women’s Studies is an interdisciplinary academic field that examines the roles, experiences, and contributions of women in various aspects of society, including culture, politics, history, literature, and social issues. It seeks to understand gender as a central category of analysis and explores how gender intersects with other social identities such as race, class, sexuality, and ability. Women’s Studies aims to address the disparities and injustices faced by women and to promote social change and gender equality. The field often includes feminist theory, gender studies, and critical analyses of societal norms related to femininity and masculinity. Through research, scholarship, and activism, Women’s Studies contributes to a deeper understanding of women’s rights and issues, advocating for women’s empowerment and representation across diverse contexts.
