The Women and Memory Forum (WMF) collaborated with HUSSLAB at the American University in Cairo (AUC) to organize a course entitled ‘Feminist Criticism of Historical Sources: Looking Ahead Towards the Future,’ held in the period from 13 to 16 February 2022 at Hill House (room 601) inside the AUC Tahrir Campus. The course was organized as part of the WMF’s educational
project Gender Education Programs[1] conducted in collaboration with various universities and research centers.
The WMF’s Gender Education Programs introduce the participants to gender studies through lectures and practical applications on the key concepts, topics, and theories relating to gender across diverse disciplines and academic fields. The programs provide participants with theoretical and applied readings, as well as bibliographies, key references, and primary sources on gender issues in the humanities and social sciences.
The Women and Memory Forum is a non-profit research institution that seeks to contribute effectively to the production of knowledge and the dissemination of an alternative culture about women in the Arab region. The WMF rereads the cultural heritage and history to shape an awareness that supports women’s roles in society and culture, and confronts the prevailing misconceptions and negative stereotypes about women in the mainstream culture.
