The online GEM conference aims to bring together academics, teachers, student teachers, postgraduate students, health professionals, policy-makers, NGOs, parents and the wider education community, to engage in dialogue about gender equality with a focus on gender stereotyping, gender-based bullying and gender-based violence (GBV). Our approach emphasises participation and the sharing of innovative ideas, pedagogies and experience.

The keynote speakers are:

  • Prof. Kathleen Lynch
  • Prof. Anne Looney
  • Prof. James O'Higgins-Norman
  • Mr. Peter Dankmeijer

There will be 20 paper presentations and 4 workshops. Throughout the event there will be engaging activities for attendees such as social connection rooms, graphic harvesting, interactive whiteboards, video-clips and a gallery. The preliminary findings of the GEM project will also be shared.

The Gender Equality Matters (GEM) Conference is a free conference to attend. It is funded by the Rights, Equality and Citizenship (REC) Programme of the European Union.
