Discussion
Feminism and gender equality in Central Europe
Thursday, June 6, at 18:00 in the library of Goethe-Institute (Panenská 33).
What are the primary challenges and needs regarding gender equality and women's rights in Central Europe? How do they differ depending on the local context and what common themes unite us at the European level?
Bringing together activist movements, who are building intersectional communities in Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia, participants will attempt to answer these questions.
English-speaking visitors are welcomed as the discussion will be held in English, you just need to register.
