Description

How can we foster and integrate feminist ideas into development
conversations that take place in large international organizations?
WAPPP fellow Elisabeth Prügl finds that feminist ideas have triumphed
and been tamed at the same time within the World Bank. Prügl analyzes a
variety of documents and interviews with gender experts to identify how
these contradictory effects have taken place. Speaker: Elisabeth M Prügl, WAPPP Fellow,
2014-2015; Professor of International Relations; Director, Program for
Gender and Global Change, Graduate Institute of International and
Development Studies, Geneva
