CCCL | Gender and Sexuality in Morocco

Examine the history, cultural norms, and political structures that help shape attitudes toward sexuality and gender from international perspectives. During this two-week excursion, students engage with Moroccan academics, researchers, and activists to examine the issue of sexuality and gender in a modern and Islamic society. The role of the Islamic minority is a crucial social issue in much of Europe, and issues of gender and sexuality are seen as the most visible fault line of societal tensions. Travelling to Morocco grants students the opportunity to examine these issues from a very different cultural context.
