Feminist Studies

Feminist studies is when we look at how women are impacted in the world. It means studying how women have fewer rights or fewer opportunities than men, and trying to figure out why that is and how we can change it. We can look at books, articles, and other kinds of media to learn about what’s happening with women in different countries and places. We can also discuss ideas about how women could have more equal rights, jobs, and opportunities. The goal of feminist studies is to make sure that everyone is treated equally and given the same opportunities, regardless of gender.
