| Main themes |
The different gender systems will be presented in their historical context. The seminar aims through case studies to highlight the importance of such an analysis in development.
The seminar has two main goals:
- Give an insight of the "gender and development" theoretical approaches and the analytical framework;
- Be confronted with research realised in different sociocultural contexts and field work.
The following themes will be presented:
1. Gender systems, dimensions and challenges.
2. The contribution of a gender approach to the economic and employment market analysis.
3. Gender, globalisation and migration.
4. Gender in the discourse and practice of different development cooperation institutions.
|
| Aims |
- Know how to integrate a gender approach in development analysis.
- Critical analytical skills of " female " and " male " stereotypes that have an impact on development policies at different scales (micro and macrosocial).

| Other information |

The slides presented at the course will be available on icampus. A reading portfolio that gathers reference articles on the different themes of the course and a list of reference readings will be also available.
