Recording: Rethinking Gender for Inclusive Institutions

What does maths have to do with gender inequality? Watch the recording of the NADEL event with Dr. Eugenia Cheng and find out.

On 28 June 2023, NADEL hosted an inspiring event with external pageDr. Eugenia Cheng, a mathematician exploring pure mathematics’ role in advancing gender equality. She challenges the notion of labeling behaviors as masculine or feminine and urges us to separate character traits from gender. Dr. Cheng introduces new terms like "ingressive" ("going into things") and "congressive" ("bringing things together") to start a fresh conversation. In the recording of the event, you can find out more about her conceptual framework for finding a way out of division and exclusion.
