INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
University of Copenhagen, 2006

Gender and Religion in Global Perspectives
Relocating Agendas, Approaches and Practices in the 21th Century

Place: University of Copenhagen, Denmark
Date: October 27-28, 2006
Organizers: Research Priority Area: Religion in the 21st. Century and
the Co-ordination for Gender Studies in Denmark

Gender and religion are burning issues and have been continually
exposed in the media, in politics and in culture over the last
decades. Gender issues are often exposed in relation to religion in
complicated ways that are both local and universal. How have gender
and ideas about gender roles been used and misused in religious
revivals? How do ideas about religion, gender and equality influence
power relations locally and around the globe? What are the
implications of understanding gender and religion as constructed and
as sites for both conceptual and practical conflicts about meaning?
How and where have gender and sexuality acted as central sites of
negotiations, debates and conflicts, both within and between religious
communities and commitments?

The conference aims at bridging gender and religious studies and at
transforming scholarship and reflection in both current and historical
perspectives. The goal is to enhance the exchange between scholars of
different disciplines and to create a space for exchange across
research specialisations. Every scholar interest-ed in framing his or
her contribution in relation to the themes of the conference is
invited to submit a paper or to suggest a workshop.
