8 March release
The events proposed by the University on the occasion of International Women’s Day are opportunities for reflection and debate, open to the public, on gender equality and the global mobilisation of women’s movements against violence and violated rights; discussions bringing together multiple voices, also in response to the concerns of younger and older people, students and citizens.
