性別平等與「他」何干？/

The Role of Men and Boys in Achieving Gender Equality

訪問學人計劃 / Visiting Scholar Programme

Abstract / 講座內容：
It is often assumed that gender equality is "women's business", and men have no role in reforming gender relations. But men are crucial to gender reform, and their role is increasingly debated. In 2004, the United Nations adopted a policy document about how men and boys can be involved in achieving gender equality. Raewyn Connell, who helped to write this document, will discuss the issue of social justice in gender relations, the changing place of men in debates about gender equality, the relation between men and women's movements, and the new research about men and masculinities.
