What do you know about women in Politics? When we say 'politician,' which gender immediately pops in your head? Why? Are women leaders necessarily feminists? Do you think they have different political impacts? How many prominent women politicians or leaders do you know?

To answer these questions and more, join Alaa Elhadidi, former Egyptian diplomat and former ambassador to Turkey, Russia and Romania and is currently a professor of practice of international relations at AUC's School of Global Affairs and Public Policy, as he delves into the political world through a gendered lens.

This public lecture will be moderated by Yasmeen El Ghazaly, MA. Assistant Director and CASAR Adjunct Faculty.

This event is part of the course titled AMST 2096 - ‘Feminism in Egypt and the US: Broader Perspectives.’

This event is proudly sponsored by the Cynthia Nelson Institute for Gender and Women’s Studies at AUC.

*Light refreshments will be served
