List of Events during R-Weeks

10^th R-Weeks hosted by Center for Gender Studies (CGS) is going to be held from 6th to 17th June!
R-Weeks is a project in which we hold events and workshops on various problems felt around campus, primarily in terms of gender and sexuality, in order to create an environment where our voices can be heard.

We have planned a variety of events, from lectures to workshops. Together, let us make a campus in which everyone can live safely and comfortably.

Now we are also having the panel exhibition "Together with Fuwarin, You’re Not Alone At ICU" on the 1st floor of the library (5/30-6/30). Messages by CGS members, professors and ICU staff members, who are supportive of LGBTQ rights, are exhibited. We also put our book recommendations.

Here's a list of events during R-Weeks. CGS is located in Education and Research Building (ERB) 301.
