The “Netzwerk Geschlechterforschung Hessen” is an inter- and transdisciplinary network that bundles and promotes the many facets of gender research in Hesse. Our members are academics from various disciplines and status groups who work together to research and reflect on the significance of gender in society, culture, politics and science. We understand gender and gender relations as interwoven with other relations of power and domination.
The network is committed to free science in a democratic and pluralistic society. This also includes the autonomy of science from the influence of political institutions. We stand for the critical examination of gender and power relations in society as a fundamental component of the freedom of research and teaching.
This page is still under construction. We will soon publish a preliminary mission statement of the network and activate the possibility to apply for membership.
