In June 1999, the University of Oxford held an international Symposium on Chinese Women’s Organizations. About 50 Chinese and international scholars and women activists took part in the event.

Two themes for our Symposium:


1. The development of Chinese women’s organizations, including the current status of various women’s organizations in China, experience gained, existing problems and their likely causes, major challenges, and developing trends, among other issues.





2. International women’s studies. We propose two aspects for exploration: one is the study of women in the context of international relations (IRs), including new research findings concerning women’s participation in IR, the women’s movements worldwide and gender analysis of IR theories.
