GFC Plan

Global Feminisms Collaborative Project Plan

After a successful launch year, the Global Feminisms participants are leading a number of GFC activities. Sub-groups led by core GFC members will carry out different forms of outreach which build on our research, teaching, and service (and trouble the conceptual value of thinking of research, teaching, and service as able to be separated).
