The mission of the 1st Critical Gender Studies Journal’s International Conference (CGSJ-IC 2025) is to foster a dynamic and inclusive platform for academic discourse and collaboration in the field of critical gender studies. The conference aims to:
• Encourage the integration of various academic disciplines to enrich the understanding of gender and its intersections with other social categories such as race, class, sexuality, and ability.
• Facilitate the presentation and discussion of cutting-edge research that challenges existing paradigms and contributes to the development of new theories and methodologies in gender studies.
• Create a bilingual (English and Spanish) environment that promotes cultural exchange and understanding among participants from different linguistic and cultural backgrounds.
• Highlight the role of gender studies in addressing social inequalities and injustices and inspire participants to engage in activism and policy-making.
• Provide opportunities for networking and collaborative partnerships among scholars.
• The CGSJ-IC 2025 contributes to the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal 5 (SDG 5), Gender Equality, by promoting Gender Equality through education, addressing gender-based violence, fostering economic participation, and encouraging policy change.
