Five College Women's Studies Research Center : Ford Curricular Crossings

Ford Curricular Crossings

From 1995-1998, the Center's Curricular Crossings grant, our first international initiative, addressed intersections between area studies and women's studies relevant to women's health and welfare on a global scale. Funds from Ford were used to bring seven researchers to the Center from Africa, Latin America, the Middle East and South Asia to conduct studies and work with faculty to recast area studies courses to better reflect the situation of women worldwide, and to make women's studies courses more international in scope. More than one hundred Five College faculty participated in various aspects of the program from conferences to symposia to informal discussions. These collaborations resulted in a rich collection of new curricular materials.
