Hansen launches international gender equity site

HansenProfessor Emerita Sunny Hansen (Educational Psychology) recently launched a new international gender equity Web site called Born Free International.

The site, under development for the last three years, consists of original, revised, and new print materials created by 14 Minnesota institutions through a federal grant from the Women’s Educational Equity Act. International authors from about a dozen countries have contributed articles to the site. Authors provide a brief section on country demographics, another on gender issues in the culture, and a third on their own experiences growing up, studying, or working in the country.

For more information about Born Free International, read the full press release.
