Current Projects

In February, 2007, the IGGD will be co-sponsoring a couple of panels at the International Studies Association being held in Chicago, Illinois. One panel will be "Policies Toward Migratory Flows: Their Gendered Effects." The other will be "The Politics of Gendered Diasporas."

In April, 2007, the IGGD in conjunction with the Women's Center, the Women's Studies Department at CSUN and the Coalition Against Sexual Trafficking (CAST), an NGO in Los Angeles, is planning a major conference on April 16, 17 and 18, 2007 on Migration and Sex Trafficking at CSUN. Speakers from academic and non-governmental organizations will be coming to discuss, and conduct workshops on the scope and nature of the problem and especially on what is being done to combat it.
