About the Gender Lunch series
Gender Lunch is a recurring event that brings together researchers from across the University of Copenhagen for an informal lunch with an academic twist. Every month, a different faculty acts as host, creating a rotating setting where diverse academic traditions and perspectives on gender can meet.
The aim of Gender Lunch is to provide space for interdisciplinary conversations about gender and diversity – both as research fields and as lived experiences in academia. Over a shared meal, one or more researchers introduce a current theme, ongoing research, an article, a project, or teaching practice in the field. This serves as a starting point for discussion and exchange of perspectives.
