科技的进步提升了人类福祉,但同时亦带来了新的风险,其中包括「科技促成的暴力」。此一概括性概念涵盖多种行为,例如网络欺凌、网上性骚扰、影像性暴力,以及深伪(deepfake)滥用等。鉴于此类暴力行为日益普遍,而公众对其性质及危害的认识仍相对不足,香港中文大学性别研究中心与性别研究课程将合办一个为期一天的国际会议。

本次会议将汇聚国际专家、执法机构代表、平等机会委员会代表、主要非政府组织、法律学者及科技专家,共同探讨如何预防及应对科技促成的暴力,并加强公众意识。会议将以双语进行,多数讲者将以粤语发言,并于现场提供英语至粤语的即时传译。诚邀学者、大学生、前线社工、中小学教育工作者,以及关心此议题的公众人士参与。

Venue: The Chinese University of Hong Kong
Date: December 12-13, 2008
Conference organizers: Gender Research Centre and Gender Studies Programme, The Chinese University of Hong Kong

Co-organizers: Women’s Studies Centre, Peking University, and Institute for Women’s Studies, Keimyung University

Over the last few decades, East Asia has emerged as one of the fastest changing regions in the world: first characterized by a post-war bloom and then a drastic economic downturn, now an ever-growing consuming power, cutting-edge technology and a creative industry and popular culture that have crossed cultural and linguistic boundaries. Amidst all these changes, how has the family as a fundamental social institution been affected? How is the understanding of the family as the core of Asian values and nation-building re-negotiated? Who are the agents that have contributed to these changes and who will decide what the future of family will be? Apart from the traditional organization of family around gender hierarchy, what are the emerging patterns or possibilities of gender relationships surrounding the family in the rapidly changing societies of mainland China, Hong Kong, Korea, Macau, Japan, and Taiwan? Most importantly, in an increasingly globalized world, in what ways have issues of diversity and multiculturalism challenged the definition of the East Asian family in the new century? These are some of the issues that this coming conference will address.

The conference aims to provide a forum that encourages the sharing of knowledge and experience on the region of East Asia, a platform to build a network of like-minds that are concerned about the nature and development of the family, and an opportunity to develop joint strategies that combine academic discussion and activism. Papers and poster presentations may focus on the various theoretical debates and experiences related to gender and family in the region. Proposed sub-themes include:

• Theories of family and gender
• Family policy and gender equality
• Family, gender and law
• Family-work interface
• Family, gender and religion
• Family, marriage and sexualities
• Family, gender and health
• Family, social capital and marginality
• Motherhoods and fatherhoods
• Trans-border families

Language: The conference language will primarily be in English.

Accommodation: On campus accommodation is limited and will be arranged on a first-come-first served basis. Please indicate on the registration form if you would like to stay on campus. There are also a number of hotels in the vicinity of the Chinese University of Hong Kong.

About the conference:
This conference on “The Future of Feminist Politics in the Age of Globalization” aims for the fundamental reorientation of feminist politics in the context of East Asian women’s experiences. Though China and Korea have gone through different historical paths in political and economic development processes, women in both countries share increasingly common interests and problems largely due to the rapid economic developments in this region that may be characterized as globalization and neoliberalism. Though gender equality is now firmly accepted as part and parcel of natural human rights especially among highly educated young women whose number is rapidly increasing, rapid economic developments and accompanying social changes are transforming social and cultural terrains for feminist politics in this region drastically. The characters of these transformations that have been also going on in most of western developed countries require reexamination of the previous feminist political strategies based on identity politics that have been so effective in securing gender equality. In this conference, feminist scholars from four countries will discuss the future directions of feminist politics based on this reexamination, focusing on Eastern Asian women’s experiences.

The conference “Gender and Social Movements “aims to capture and record the gender dimensions of social movements in contemporary society, and provide a platform to build network of like-minded scholars, activists and members from civil society that are concerned about the latest development of social movements from international and local perspectives. Through exchange of knowledge and experience, the conference hopes to develop strategies that combine academic discussion and social engagement, and facilitate further discussion and imagination in the fields of social movement, gender, social development, and social change studies.

The conference is divided into three parts: a) Pre-conference Webinar Series on Gender Justice, as a precursor to the conference; b) Gender Justice Scholarship, which provides a grant to encourage students to engage in gender-related research; c) International Conference “Gender and Social Movements”.

Introduction:
Social movements are one of the principal channels through which collectivities voice out their grievances, views, and visions about society and push for changes. Major social movements such labor, civil rights, feminist, environmental, pro-democracy, and LGBTI movements have profoundly shaped societies. Women have actively participated in these movements. Gender has played central roles in the movement dynamics. Women of different classes and ages often participate in social movements with diverse identities and modes of engagement, which greatly challenges the gendered division between the private and public. Gendered narratives and images are widely employed to mobilize support. On the other hand, there has been increasing threats for women in social movements of being exposed to sexual violence and harassment during their participation.

However, women’s involvement in social movements other than the women’s movements has often been neglected. This conference aims to capture and record the gender dimensions of social movements in contemporary society, and provide a platform to build network of like-minded scholars, activists and members from civil society that are concerned about the latest development of social movements from international and local perspectives. Through exchange of knowledge and experience, the conference hopes to develop strategies that combine academic discussion and social engagement and facilitate further discussion and imagination in the fields of social movement, gender, social development, and social change studies.

Dates: 14-15 May 2021, 21-22 May, 11 June, 25 June 2021 (Friday and Saturday, UTC+8 Hong Kong Time)

Language: English

Format: Online, using Zoom.

Recap: Day 1 of International Conference 2024 – Making Changes: Gender and Impactful Policy

Key Speakers:
Prof. Chizuko UENO and Prof. Deborah DAVIS shared their perspectives on intimate relationship dynamics, drawing from their observations in Japanese and Chinese societies. Their presentations included comprehensive statistics depicting macro changes and explored how these changes impact daily intimate lives, as well as the diverse and potential forms of caregiving and co-living.

Diverse Perspectives:
Our conference was enriched by the presence of outstanding younger discussants from psychology, media studies, and sociology backgrounds. Prof. Wong, Prof. Chan, and Prof. Lai offered their unique views on intimate relationships and gender, sexuality dynamics, providing valuable insights from their own research. The discussion took an exhilarating turn as the speakers delved into the impact of AI technologies on the very fabric of intimate connections.

Gender Researchers’ Role:
In her inspiring concluding remark, our Co-director, Prof. Choi, posed inspiring questions about alternative models of care and intimacy from an intersectional and global perspective. She emphasized the central role of gender researchers in exploring this future matter for all of us, whose contribution is vital in shaping a more inclusive and equitable society.

Incredible Engagement:
The energy in the theatre was palpable as attendees from different schools packed the venue, creating a vibrant atmosphere of intellectual exchange. And let’s not forget our online participants! We were thrilled to have a staggering 1200 virtual attendees who actively engaged in the riveting Q&A session, adding their voices to the thought-provoking dialogue.

Gratitude and Anticipation:
We extend our heartfelt thanks to our brilliant speakers, insightful discussants, and enthusiastic attendees for their invaluable contributions to this transformative dialogue. Stay tuned for more thought-provoking events in the future!

Recap: Day 2 of International Conference 2024 – Making Changes: Gender and Impactful Policy

We brought together brilliant gender scholars from top universities in Japan, the US, the UK, Singapore and Hong Kong. Together, we delved into the cutting-edge dynamics between gender, policies, and daily life.

The keynote speeches were very inspiring! Prof. Guerrina from the University of Bristol took us on a journey through the gendered realms of various socio-economic aspects in foreign policy. Prof. Wilcox, from the University of Cambridge, gave us a fresh perspective on how AI technologies can embody and reproduce gender and racial bodies in war and international relations. Prof. Yeoh from National University of Singapore fascinated us with her research on waste management practices and the intricate connections to migrant women domestic workers in Singapore within a transnational and gendered context. And our Co-director, Prof. Choi, took an intersectional lens to analyse the intimate relationships of queer individuals in China, exploring the intricate structural constrains imposed by heteronormativity and patriarchy.

We were also thrilled to hear from excellent gender scholars including our Co-director Pro. Nakano and Prof. Wong, Prof. Song and Prof. Suen at Gender Studies Programme of CUHK. They shared their exciting research findings, covering topics like the experiences of single women in urban Asia, the evolving gender concepts among single-sex school students in Hong Kong, gendered strategies of family division in relocated housing in China, and the intriguing relationship between traditional religious beliefs and attitudes towards same-sex marriage in Hong Kong.

Throughout the day, the conference buzzed with energy! The presentations were captivating, and the audience actively participated, sparking engaging discussions. The tea breaks provided a relaxed atmosphere for networking and vibrant conversations. We were honoured to have Prof. Cheung, the founder of the Gender Research Centre and Gender Studies Programme, deliver an insightful rejoinder speech, concluding the conference on a high note. We truly believe that this international conference not only fosters global scholarly exchange but also brings valuable research to the masses and supports policy development.
