One more year, and like every year, next March 8th International Women’s Day<\/strong> is celebrated to vindicate feminism and denounce sexism that tries to perpetuate itself in different ways.<\/p>\n

It is a day of vindication for the fight for rights, equal opportunities, equity, and justice. It symbolizes the critical spirit that will lead us to the eradication of inequalities, dismantling the bases that allow hostile conduct such as sexual harassment, violence, and discrimination against women.<\/p>\n

The Catalan Institute of Classical Archeology joins the claims and supports the Manifesto of the Network of Gender Equality Unities for University Excellence (#RUIGEU)<\/a> and the Institutional Declaration 2022 of the Generalitat de Catalunya<\/a>, which claims and defends the full guarantee of human rights for all women.<\/p>\n

The demands of this day are those of every day. Our fight is constant. We fight to eliminate stereotypes against employment and salary discrimination, against sexist violence, but above all to build a paradigm shift with an eye toward full equality of opportunities between women and men.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

On the occasion of the celebration of March 8, International Women’s Day, the ICAC Gender Equality Committee<\/a> has organized an informative talk, by the GRAP (UB) researcher Margarita D\u00edaz-Andreu<\/a>, on March 9 at 12 noon.<\/h6>\n

This presentation will offer some of the results obtained in the Arque\u00f3logAs project<\/a> (ref. PID2019-110748GB-I00, UB) in relation to the origins of gender inequality that women in the archaeological profession still experience today.<\/p>\n

\"\"Margarita D\u00edaz-Andreu<\/strong><\/a> (Ram\u00f3n Men\u00e9ndez Pidal National Award 2021) is ICREA Professor at the University of Barcelona. Since her first publications (in the 1990s), she has focused her scientific production on the gender perspective and has also been interested in the history of women in archaeology.<\/p>\n

Currently, she is the leading researcher of the Arque\u00f3logas<\/strong><\/a> project, from which she is organizing a website with a section called \u201cpioneers<\/a>\u201d, a compilation of biographies of women born in or before 1950 who played a relevant role in the field of archaeology. Within the framework of the Arque\u00f3logas<\/strong><\/a> project, the team is also working on a dissemination publication (featured by 2022) based on the history of women in Spanish archeology.<\/p>\n

This is an initiative of the ICAC Gender Equality Committee<\/strong><\/a>, within the framework of the ICAC Gender Equality Plan and the HRS4R strategy<\/a>.<\/p>\n
