Description

The Women's Center Roundtable series is a monthly event focusing on a particular issue or topic and its intersection with women + gender.  

For this roundtable we will be exploring Women and the Environment and discussing Eco-Justice, Global Movements, and Women's Perspectives. 

Our panelists will address questions such as: How do natural disasters have a unique impact on women? How can we bring awareness to the intersections of gender, poverty, and racism in global conversations about eco-justice?
