September 2015 Update
We have had a very full month at the Institute!
Our informal monthly discussion - Food 4 Thought - brought together students, faculty, and staff in Beirut and Byblos to talk about what “studying gender” actually means. As the first speaker, I shared my experience working in countries in conflict and natural disasters and showed a nonstop stream of photos from my adventures. I challenged us all to ask ourselves: Are we content with the world as it is? Are we living in the world that we want? Do we know everything we should know - about our rights, our roles, our opportunities?
