AndetForeningen for Kønsforskning i Danmark/The Association for Gender Research in Denmark and Copenhagen Business School are pleased to announce the 2024 Gender Conference, a scholarly forum dedicated to the exploration of research on gender. In 2024 the theme of the conference will be ‘intersectionality’.<br/><br/>The concept of 'intersectionality,' coined by legal scholar Kimberlé Crenshaw in the late 1980s, originally focused on the unique challenges faced by black women who were not only discriminated on the grounds of their gender or their race, but through combinations of the two, which could not be recognized by the legal system.<br/><br/>Beyond law, 'intersectionality' emerged from discussions among radical black feminists, who critiqued the claims of universal feminism rooted in white Western contexts. The concept highlights how multiple aspects of identity intersect, limiting individuals' agency and impeding anti-patriarchal and anti-racist efforts.<br/><br/>Uncovering such complexities remains highly relevant today, as the interplay of biases and discrimination along multiple axes continues to shape our individual experiences and social realities. Acknowledging the ongoing need for intersectional analysis, not least in relation to gender, the 2024 Danish Gender Conference calls for research that explores the many different intersections of gender.
