EUROPEAN STUDIES

*TRIGGER WARNING*

On 26 October, 5 p.m.,  the organisation Wir sehen hin e.V. and the Grüne Jugend Börde - offers a workshop around the topic of feminism (in German). During the event, Luna Möbius, an activist, will give insights into different feminist streams and elaborate on queer and materialist feminism. Afterwards, Alba María Kugelmeier López, research assistant and PhD student at the Chair of Multilevel Governance in Europe at the Otto-von-Guericke University, will talk about gender-based violence and abortion rights in the context of current feminist crises in Europe. After the presentations, the participants will have the opportunity to discuss the inputs in small groups and to reflect on different points of view. The groups will compile their results on posters, which will serve as a basis for the concluding discussion. 

The workshop will take place from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. in the conference room (ground floor) of the library of the Otto-von-Guericke University.

The workshop is free of charge and a registration is not necessary.

On the 4th of October, online, the ECPR Energy-PPG Workshop on Women in Energy & Climate Politics, Policy & Governance will be taking place and registrations are open to all interested parties.

The event will be tackling pertinent and topical questions on the intersection between gender equality and energy and climate politics, policy and governance.

What does the research tell us with regard to women participation in the energy sector? The EU’s gender policy, new dawn or have we reached a ceiling? What are the politician’s attitudes towards Men’s Role in Gender Equality Representation? How could we address the gender imbalance in the renewable energy industry? How can mentorship help to overcome challenges? How can we achieve gender equality in the sustainable energy transition?

Alba Kugelmeier López, member of our EUS Team, researcher and lecturer on feminist theories and gender equality policies at Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg will be taking part in the event, together with fellow researchers and experts on Women in Politics, Policy, Governance and Energy.
