Institute for Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies (IGSF)

The Institute for Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies (IGSF) at McGill University supports cutting-edge research, teaching and outreach activities in gender, sexuality and feminist studies. We aim to produce knowledge that is accessible to the public and in dialogue with our local communities, and we are committed to creating a more just, equal, responsive and creative world. Our undergraduate teaching program in Gender, Sexuality, Feminist and Social Justice Studies trains students in critical, intersectional and transnational approaches to study. We also support the interdisciplinary Graduate Option in Gender and Women’s Studies, which offers graduate training in gender studies and feminist theories, methods and research.
