Debates about gender and feminist concepts
The Feminist Institute (FI) is closely tied to feminism and the women's movement through its history as well as its political positions. The FI is closely involved in current feminist debates - whether academic or societal - through public events and debates, as well as internally. GLOW also follows and documents insitutional, theoretical, and socialpolitical aspects of feminism.
