Women and Gender in an
Era of Global Change:
Internationalizing
and 'Engendering' the Curriculum
The goal of the project was to
"enhance understanding in the university community of the international
processes and differing national contexts which structure gender
arrangements and to explore women's responses in their daily lives,
forms of activism, and cultural contributions." As its central
objective, the project sought to encourage University of Maryland
faculty both at College Park and at other System campuses, representing
a variety of fields, including women's studies and international
studies, to incorporate into their courses new scholarship and theory
about women in contemporary international contexts.
It also intended to build and support a more cohesive campus community
of faculty concerned about international women's issues, and to
recognize and support international women students at the UMCP campus.
The project also anticipated disseminating the results of our work to a
broader audience via a conference and manual of syllabi and resources.

and their impact on the curricula, here.
