Fondren Library, Rice University

The SWGS Center’s second public forum on Gender in Latin America brings to Rice a panel of speakers who are working with women from the indigenous communities of Chiapas and engaged in university-based research, community-based education, and organizing. Each of the speakers will address the impact of the latest phase of globalization on men and women in Mexico’s most southern state; the intensified migration and militarization, as well as the role of women in the leadership of alternative economic and political projects; and strategies for solidarity beyond the region. The panel will be in Spanish with English translation provided.

Co-director of the Center for Economic Research and Social Action (CIEPAC) in Chiapas, Mexico. He collaborates in research, educational programming, indigenous community organizing and mobilizing support for just economic and social policies.
