Interviewer: Adriana Negreiros (Doutoranda CES)


About

In the 2022-2023 edition, the Gender Workshop proposes to continue the “Feminist Interviews” with people from different areas of intervention and work in the field of gender equality and women's dignity and wellbeing in Portugal and Spain. The interviews will allow us to map relevant work carried out in our country and in the neighbouring country, not only in the academy, in the sciences, but also in activism, the arts, care, work, trade unionism, etc. The format of an interview with an audience in attendance will allow for an initial dialogue between interviewer/interviewee and an opening for debate. The selection of interviewees and interviewers will aim at a cartography of diverse feminisms, in particular in the daily and concrete exercise of projects far from the large centres.
