Event Details

This is a session that welcomes all. And this is a session intended to support men in their efforts to advance gender equity. This session raises questions about the extent to which our understanding of male allyship is actually in service of gender equity. It challenges our traditional ideas of leadership and heroism. And explores what it looks like for men to lead and to ally in different ways.
