Program
04:30 p.m. — Jineolojî – a panel with Jineolojî Committee
Jineolojî is a river finding its own way. The ideas of every woman, her study, the data she finds, the secrets her mother whispers in her ear, the power of interpretation, these are all drops that strengthen the flow of this river. Its most beautiful aspect is its spontateous enlightenment of social blindness. Jineoloji is ensuring that knowledge conveyed to it is carried to society. Furthermore, Jineolojî is embellishing research in all fields, whether economy, health or history. With the rise of the Kurdish women's movement, jineolojî has spread across the Middle East and Europe since 2011. Today, hundreds of women from different cultures and backgrounds are connecting with this new science. This Panel will be an introduction to some of the perspectives of Jineolojî and the practical works in Germany and Kurdistan.
