25-04-2013 'International Gender Congress' (Turkey)

The 'International Gender Congress' will take place from 25 to 26 April 2013 in Istanbul, Turkey.

The concept of gender deals with women's and men's place in society as well as related social expectations. Gender relations vary from one country to another and are strongly rooted in history. Academic studies in this field have expanded after the establishment of 'Gender Studies Programmes' in major universities worldwide since the 1980s.
