About the Event: 

Please join us for the Fifth Annual YaleWomen social, which we are holding this year in conjunction with the Yale International Alliance.  The evening will begin with a talk by Inderpal on 'Neoliberalism and Women’s Movements in the New Century'.  This event will lead up to the YIA hosted Conference on Global Citizenship in Rome on 13-14 March -- more information on the Rome conference will be shared at the event.  Inderpal will share her recent research and then open up the discussion to the audience.  As always, the atmosphere is relaxed, informal and intimate. This is a chance to also catch up with fellow Yalies after the talk.  All yale is and guests are welcome.  If anyone has any new initiatives they’d like to share with the wider group there will be an opportunity at the beginning of the talk to share it with others.
