Join us for an online talk with Connie Guberman who will share her knowledge about conducting safety audits through a feminist lens.

Guberman, a professor at the University of Toronto Scarborough, worked with Toronto’s METRAC (Metropolitan Action Committee on Violence Against Women and Children) where she developed the original Women’s Campus Safety Audit Guide and has been a consultant to municipalities, park and transit systems, university and college campuses internationally on safety and design. She was a partner in the community/campus project “Engaging Young People to Prevent Violence Against Women on Campus” funded by Status of Women Canada and has been recognized by the City of Toronto and the Canadian Urban Institute for her work on “equitable treatment for women in the areas of planning and violence against women.

If there are any specific questions you have in advance about conducting feminist -informed audits on your campus, Connie would like to know if advance of December 8. You can send her a message directly at c.guberman at utoronto.ca<https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/safety-audits-through-a-feminist-lens-tickets-753453047347?aff=oddtdtcreator&keep_tld=1>

A Zoom link will be emailed before the event on Dec. 8.

The association encourages a wide definition of Women's and Gender Studies as a field of study and aims to aid those teaching and researching in the field in a variety of locations.
