This course delves into the multifaceted experiences, roles, and contributions of Arab women within the SWANA Region, transcending the conventional emphasis on religious oppression to encompass the intricate interplay of political, class, and regional dynamics. Its primary objective is to fortify an intellectual framework that serves as the bedrock for subsequent scholarly inquiries and research endeavors in the field of gender and women's studies. Leveraging pertinent theoretical frameworks and empirical cases from the Arab world, course participants will gain a profound understanding of the intricate complexities and nuanced factors that delineate the lived experiences of women within this distinctive geographical context. |
