Mission
The Center for Women's and Gender Equity honors gender as a central identity and engages critical women's and gender issues, while challenging systems of inequity and advocating for change at the University of Northern Colorado.
We accomplish this by:
- educating our campus community on topics and issues related to the experiences of women, trans and non-binary students
- providing an inclusive and validating space
- engaging in conversations about the impacts of sexism, cissexism and misogyny
- empowering student voices to advocate for and create gender equity at 麻豆传媒
In collaboration with other campus partners that include the university cultural and resource centers, academic departments, and other units within the division of student affairs, the CWGE builds community by supporting students in deepening their understanding of social justice and gender equity in order to be effective advocates for changes on their campus and in their communities.
鈥淭here is no thing as a single-issue struggle because we do not live single-issue lives.鈥�
