Sociology and anthropology prof Océane Jasor heads a transnational group for the promotion of gender equality in the region
As Concordia continues to develop its international partnerships, the university will collaborate with West African academics on a Queen Elizabeth Scholars (QES) project for the promotion of gender equality.
“We want this to be a truly non-colonial, dynamic partnership between Concordia and West African universities,” says Océane Jasor, assistant professor in the Department of Sociology and Anthropology, who will be heading the project.
“Ultimately, we hope to strengthen African studies at Concordia and establish a long-term collaboration with West Africa that goes beyond the three-year time frame.”
