Grant Cycle 2024
SWGI offered small grants for student-led research projects and senior projects that focused on or used gender and sexuality as a major analytical tool in their work. Undergraduate students from all departments/schools at LUMS were welcomed to apply. As part of this grant, students presented their scholarly work to the LUMS community and published their work in the centre’s Gender Bi-Annual. This semester, we funded seven research projects.
