Project Details

The aim is to develop a new teaching format that enables students to work on the research topic of gender/sex in an interdisciplinary manner and in a joint project. This subject area is to be expanded by linking it with the difference category of "age/generations". An intersectional perspective, i.e. a sensitised view of social complexity and inequalities, enables a deepening of the theoretical and empirical approaches to "Gender & Age".

The following activities were realised in PROFIL Gender:
