<div align="justify" style="font-family:wf_segoe-ui_normal,'Segoe UI','Segoe WP',Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif">
<font face="Calibri,sans-serif">This event has two interrelated general aims: a) to bring into dialogue discourse analysis paradigms and methodologies across disciplines; and b) to explore the operation of sexism in the current conjuncture. The event is particularly
interested in building bridges – both theoretically and methodologically speaking – between gender and language studies, and feminist cultural studies, sociology and social psychology, while also considering activism in this area. How might we learn from each
other to better deconstruct, comprehend and resist contemporary gender ideologies and permutations of sexism?</font></div>

<div align="justify" style="font-family:wf_segoe-ui_normal,'Segoe UI','Segoe WP',Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif">
<font face="Calibri,sans-serif">During the day, we hope to provide a stimulating encounter to collaboratively advance innovative interdisciplinary approaches to the complex workings of power and ideology in discourse, as well as to reinvigorate intersectional
feminist politics. The invited speakers will be addressing these questions theoretically, empirically, and/or drawing on their feminist practice/activism, and there will be opportunities for discussion.</font></div>
