We invite faculty and graduate students from across the University to come together this Spring, on October 21, 2022, to share our work and discuss further opportunities for interdisciplinary conversations on intersectional issues of gender, racial, and economic justice. We encourage applications on research focused on antiracist work, and intersectional impacts of COVID-19.
G+JI welcomes proposals that engage these topics from varied perspectives and methodologies and at any stage of development, from initial vision to finished paper. G+JI will develop thematically related panels based on the submissions. Panels will consist of 10-15 minute presentations and discussion with the audience. The afternoon will conclude with a reception.

The G+JI Team
About the G+JI:
The mission of the Gender+ Justice Initiative (G+JI) is to build on the long-standing and path-breaking research already being done at Georgetown, catalyze dialogue on the impact of sex and gender across departments and campuses, and 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 sex, gender, sexuality, feminism, intersectionality, inequity and inequality.
Why the “+”? We refer to “Gender+ Justice” to signal that our concerns have gender at the core but engage race, class, sexuality, disability and other forms of oppression.
