From “Gender Studies” to Gender in Studies:
Gender Inclusive Curriculum in Higher Education:

Problems, Politics, Possibilities

Beyond unquestionable successes in the area of teaching Women /Gender/ Feminist Studies within higher education institutions as separate, independent programmes, gender related topics are still underrepresented in higher education curriculum. The UNESCO-CEPES project “From Gender Studies to Gender IN Studies: Gender Inclusive Curriculum in Higher Education” (2010-2011) will: (i) explore the processes in place to incorporate gender into specific academic disciplines; (ii) identify and share obstacles and good practices in gender mainstreaming higher education curricula in countries from SEE and (iii) produce arguments for the importance of a gender sensitive content, teaching and researching in higher education.

 

A set of case studies and guidelines for gender mainstreaming curriculum will be published and a special web page containing various on-line reference materials (such as samples of gender mainstreamed curricula, bibliographical references on the theme and relevant contacts from the region) will be produced.
