Seminar on Gender Justice by MNLU, Nagpur

The Centre for Gender Justice Studies, MNLU, Nagpur is organizing a two days national seminar on Gender Justice- Breaking Stereotypes, Discriminations and Prejudices on October 15-16, 2022.

ABOUT

Gender equality is not only a fundamental human right but a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world. It is important to observe that sex is a biological manifestation of an individual, while gender is a social tag that is based on certain pre-defined norms. The Constitution of India enshrines principles of equality before the law and that all should be given equal opportunities, but fighting the odds of discrimination and prejudices is still a long way.
