Learning outcomes

Interdisciplinary Seminar  on Male Violences Against Women

Course contents

The Laboratory develops itself as a seminar where some multidisciplinary experts  will be introduced, aiming at raising awareness and knowledge about male violence against women and understanding the cultural, social, ethical and legal management of the phenomenon.

Therefore, the seminar covers the interdisciplinary study of issues related to the phenomenon of violence against women. This is done by way of lectures aimed at broadening the issues that can be embraced by scholars and experts and by way of students' interactive debate aimed at highlighting the complexity of the phenomenon.

List of the seminars on Thursdays, from 6th October to 15th December 2021  h 17-19 (room D, viale Berti Pichat 6) will be available on the Italian version of this guide. For information on the previous editions of the Seminar, you can look here .
