由香港中文大學性別研究學系主辦，利希慎基金贊助的性別研究公開講座系列2010，將於七月份舉行第三場公開講座。是次講座會由美國明尼蘇達州大學性別、女性及性態研究學教授Richa Nagar演講。
Nagar教授研究印度及南亞性別研究議題多年，現任美國明尼蘇達州大學文學院副院長。她在印度北方邦創立了Sangtin協會服務區內農民及工人，並藉此經驗以印度文及英文出版《Sangtin Yatra》一書。她曾研究在後殖民時期的坦桑尼亞，當地南亞裔人口的性別、種族及社區政治，並發表多項研究成果。自1996年，Nagar教授的著作集中探討以低下階層為目標的增權計劃 (Empowerment projects) 及協作實踐的角色。
是次講座題為「從女性主義田野調查到協作實踐：印度Sangtin運動的啓示」。Nagar教授會分享她在印度協助創立Sangtin協會的過程。Sangtin協會有5000多名鄉郊的農民和工人會員，其創立源自九位女性反思社會等級、宗教和性別等因素怎樣影響鄉郊貧窮婦女的生活和服務她們的非政府組織的運作。講座會討論鄉郊社區、學術機構、非政府組織、行動主義團體和撥款機構之間的多元對話。

Richa Nagar - Professor of Gender, Women and Sexuality Studies, Associate Dean for Faculty in the College of Liberal Arts at the University of Minnesota, is going to be the speaker for the upcoming lecture of the Public Lecture Series on Gender Studies 2010, organized by the Gender Studies Programme of The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) and sponsored by the Lee Hysan Foundation.
Prof. Nagar is a founding member of Sangtin Kisaan Mazdoor Sangathan (Sangtin Peasants and Workers’ Organization) in Sitapur district of Uttar Pradesh, India. She has co-authored Sangtin Yatra; and her academic researches on gender, race, and communal politics among South Asian communities in postcolonial Tanzania have resulted in numerous articles and essays. Since 1996, Prof. Nagar’s works have focused mainly on collaborative efforts that seek to reconfigure the political terrain and processes associated with “empowerment” projects aimed at “the poor.”
The coming lecture in July by Prof. Nagar is titled ‘From Feminist Fieldwork to Collaborative Praxis: Lessons from the Sangtin Movement in India’. Prof. Nagar will focus on her ongoing collaboration with the Sangtin organization in India. This movement of 5000 rural peasants and laborers began as a collective of nine authors who critically reflected on how caste, class, religion, and gender shape the lives of poor rural women, and shape the internal processes, effectiveness, and limitations of non-governmental organizations that work on their behalf. The lecture will highlight the key moments in this journey, as well as the transformative dialogues triggered by the collaboration among rural and academic communities, NGOs, activist collectives, and donor agencies.
