The conference will take place on\u00a0June 10th, 2014 at Yerevan State University (A. Manoogian str.1, Balian conference hall).<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Recent decades have seen considerable progress in women\u2019s participation in political, economic, and sociocultural life across the globe. The share of women in legislative bodies has grown and so has their presence in top echelons of economic management. Women are increasingly found among leaders of civic and non-governmental organizations. Women\u2019s contributions to culture and art are increasingly acknowledged. Despite this progress, women continue to be underrepresented in political, economic, civic, and cultural leadership. The CGLS Conference will critically examine both the progress in women\u2019s advancement to leadership roles in different spheres of society and the legal, economic, and sociocultural obstacles to this advancement. It will seek effective policy solutions to problems and challenges that hinder women\u2019s leadership in Armenia and globally.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Conference will address a wide range of topics, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Women, men, and leadership in the context of rapid social change.<\/li>\n<li>Global and local theory and practice of women\u2019s leadership<\/li>\n<li>Women\u2019s leadership in politics<\/li>\n<li>Women\u2019s leadership in economic and business life<\/li>\n<li>Women\u2019s leadership in the cultural, educational, and scientific spheres<\/li>\n<li>Women leadership of social and civic movements and organizations<\/li>\n<li>Women\u2019s leadership in national, regional and global peace and security<\/li>\n<li>Political, legal, cultural, and socio-psychological barriers to women\u2019s leadership<\/li>\n<li>The role of women\u2019s and gender studies in advancing women\u2019s leadership in society<\/li>\n<li>Communicating research on women\u2019s leadership to non-academic audiences<\/li>\n<li>From research to policy: translating research findings into practice.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We welcome submissions from scholars and researchers, as well as representatives of non-governmental organizations and social activists.
