*Ten years ago, in Cambodia, I met a young woman who had lived four years
underneath her college building, in the six foot crawl space between the
bottom of the building and the mud, because there was no housing for female
university students in Cambodia. Inspired by her story, I raised the money
to build the first dormitories for college women in Cambodia. In this talk,
I will describe the ongoing struggle to empower women in Cambodia through
education and leadership training.*

Lunch will be served! Please RSVP for lunch to wgs at mit.edu.

United Nations Climate Change Conference in Paris. With the climate talks
in mind, our Summit theme this year is “Thriving with Change” with panels
focused on:

   - Interpret – How can cutting-edge research and analysis change our
   ability to understand and anticipate climate-driven water challenges?
   - Innovate – How can innovation in technology and research equip us to
   build more resilient water systems?
   - Implement – With greater understanding of climate-related water
   challenges and new tools at our disposal, how can we navigate governmental
   and geopolitical systems to build a more adaptive world?

This event presents a great opportunity to connect with water-experts and
possibly build new collaborations to better prepare us to the impending
water challenges. For more information about the event and registration
details you can visit the Water Summit website:

*6. [GCWS] Queer Diasporas and Futurities*
*When*: Wednesday, November 18, 5:30 – 7:30 PM
*Where*: The Moore Room, Building 6-321 <http://whereis.mit.edu/?go=6>

The Graduate Consortium in Women's Studies is pleased to announce the
second event in our Feminisms Unbound
<http://web.mit.edu/gcws/news+events/15-16FeminismsUnbound.html> series.
Please join us, and spread the word!

Our roundtable explores the ways in which both "queerness" and "diaspora"
each displace normative classifications of sexuality and nationality, with
consequences for the imagination of "futurity" in literature, visual
culture, and cultural politics. As queerness complicates the boundedness of
an ethnic, national or religious collectivity that desires to reproduce its
own identity, so may diaspora unsettle the normative white Europeanness of
conceptions of same-sex desire. Presenters discuss how diaspora figures
both geographical displacement and the crossing of figurative boundaries of
person, culture, society, and state, and they elaborate ways that queering
describes not only different embodiments of gender and sexuality, but also
a skewing of normative epistemology and social organization.

This event is free and open to the public.

Roundtable discussion participants:

   - *Feng-Mei Heberer*, Mellon Postdoctoral Fellow, MIT
   - *Umayyah Cable*, PhD Student, Department of American Studies and
   Ethnicity, University of Southern California
   - *Fatima El-Tayeb*, Professor of Literature, University of California
   San Diego
   - Fourth roundtable participant TBD
   - Moderator: *Lisa Lowe*, Professor of English, Tufts University

Feminisms Unbound is organized by Kimberly Juanita Brown, Assistant
Professor of English and Africana Studies, Mount Holyoke College, Lisa
Lowe, Professor of English and American Studies, Tufts University, and
Jyoti Puri, Professor of Sociology, Simmons College.  Kimberly, Lisa, and
Jyoti are also Visiting Scholars with the GCWS this year, and we thank them
for their efforts programming this exciting set of roundtable discussions.
The goal of this series is to foster conversations and community among
Boston-area feminist intellectuals and activists and explore Women’s,
Gender, and Sexuality Studies topics at the edges of the field.

*7. [POWER] Pizza and Movie Night*
*When*: Friday, November 20, 7:00 - 10:00 PM
*Where*: MIT Building E17-517 <https://whereis.mit.edu/?go=e17>
