Courage to Change: Professor Alison Phipps (University of Sussex)

The Fay Gale Centre for Research on Gender

The Fay Gale Centre for Research on Gender is delighted to host a special seminar by Professor Alison Phipps (University of Sussex, UK).

Ingkarni Wardli Level 7 Conference Room

Professor Alison Phipps is a political sociologist who has extensive experience in educational and workplace inequalities (especially in science, engineering and technology), and bullying, harassment and sexual violence. Professor Phipps is internationally recognised for her transformative work with a number of UK and European higher education (e.g. Changing University Cultures) and sector organisation settings, leading the first national prevalence study of violence against women students in the UK, developing a national strategy framework on ‘lad culture’ in higher education, and co-leading USVReact, a major pan-European intervention which trained 900 university staff to respond to disclosures of sexual violence. At this Fay Gale seminar, Professor Phipps will address the policies and practices that have the potential to enable and support structural and cultural change around issues such as gender inequity, bullying, sexual harassment and violence. This event will generate collective understanding of how change at universities can occur and the challenges and limitations that have arisen from the 'Changing University Culture' campaign in the UK. We invite all members of the University of Adelaide to join in, either in person or online.*THIS EVENT IS IN-PERSON AND ONLINE*LOCATION: - Level 7 Conference Room, Ingkarni Wardli Building, The Univerity of AdelaideReception (in-person only) : 5:30 pmWebinar (in-person &amp; online attendees): 6-7 pm WEBINAR LINK: please register here for the webinar in advance. https://adelaide.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_M9X997fZS7qBQqtf8wEXqw
