The Gender+ Justice Initiative is pleased to announce new Fellowship opportunities for 2023. Apply by December 16!
The Georgetown Gender+ Justice Initiative is delighted to welcome French journalist, writer, and award-winning filmmaker Rokhaya Diallo as an inaugural Researcher in Residence for 2021-2023.
The Gender+ Justice Initiative gathers the community to engage in thought provoking conversations related to intersectional gender justice.
The mission of the Gender+ Justice Initiative (G+JI) is to build on the long-standing, path-breaking research being done on intersectional gender and racial justice across Georgetown’s departments and campuses; to catalyze scholarship and advocacy in these areas; and to make Georgetown a dynamic hub of knowledge production, community engagement, and policy development on intersectional issues of gender, racial, and economic justice. The G+JI invites faculty and students from across the University to engage in interdisciplinary conversations and to collaborate on issues of gender, antiracism, sexuality, feminism, intersectionality, inequity and inequality.
Why the “+”? We refer to “Gender+ Justice” to signal that our concerns have gender at the core but extend to race, class, sexuality, disability and other forms of oppression. Read more about our mission and background.
The Gender+ Justice Initiative is pleased to announce new Fellowship opportunities for 2023.
The fellowship is designed to support research projects related to intersectional issues of gender, racial, and economic justice.
Eligibility: Georgetown Faculty, Undergraduate, Graduate & Professional Students across campuses
Deadline to submit application: Dec. 16
