SUMMARY:[Seminar] Queer in the Trenches : LGBTQ+ Rights\, Gender\, and European Values in Ukraine’s Fight for Freedom
DESCRIPTION:[Seminar] EUGENDERING & IRSEM-Europe \nWith: Maryna Shevtsova\, Senior Postdoctoral Fellow at KU Leuven and Ph.D. in Political Science from Humboldt University\, Berlin\, specializes in LGBTQ rights\, queer migration\, and anti-gender movements in Central and Eastern Europe &  Sophie Jacquot\, Professor at UCLouvain Saint-Louis Bruxelles\, who holds the Jean Monnet Chair EUGENDERING. \nDiscussant: Florian Opillard\, researcher at IRSEM. \nAbstract: The ongoing Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine has not only reshaped geopolitical alliances but also catalyzed profound societal transformations\, particularly in the domains of gender\, sexuality\, and human rights. This event explores the experiences of LGBTQ+ individuals serving in the Ukrainian military\, a historically masculinized institution undergoing significant change amidst the full-scale invasion by Russia. It examines the interplay between the Europeanization of human rights in Ukraine\, the legalization of same-sex partnerships\, and the broader “war of values” framing the conflict. It addresses the challenges and opportunities for advancing LGBTQ+ rights within the context of war\, including transnational cooperation\, alliances with EU partners\, and the role of civil society in fostering inclusion.  This conversation aims to bring together activists\, policymakers\, and scholars to reflect on the need for inclusive debate and strategic collaboration\, situating Ukraine’s struggle for LGBTQ+ rights within the larger framework of European integration and human dignity. \nPlease note that seating for this event is limited. \nSandwiches will be offered. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen: 27th February 2025\, from 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm (including a 20-minute lunch break from 12:00 PM to 12:20 PM)\n\n\nWhere: IRSEM-Europe\, Rue de Namur 73\, 1000\, Brussels\n\n\n\nTo register\, please fill out this form.
