In Collaboration With/Organization:
IRWG Collaborative Planning Grant
Award Year:
2015
This planning grant will facilitate inclusion of Russia in the Global Feminisms Project (GFP), an online archive that currently includes women from China, India, Nicaragua, Poland, the U.S., and – in process – Brazil. The archive is a powerful tool for teaching and research about women’s movement activists. The grant will enable us to bring Prof. Natalia Pushkareva, a leading feminist Russian historian at the Russian Academy of Sciences, to the University of Michigan to plan for ten interviews in Russia and for classroom use in both settings. It will also be used to conduct one pilot interview.
Learn more about the Global Feminisms Project on their website.
