Established at Cornell University in 1972, FGSS seeks to address some of the most important issues the world faces today, for example migration and human rights, particularly from the perspective of the most vulnerable populations, by offering students the opportunity to study a wide range of fields from the perspectives of feminist and LGBTQIA critical analysis, in global and local contexts and with the purpose of promoting social justice.
