The Institute for Tongzhi Studies (ITS) is an academic research and
exchange program based in the City University of New York led by Chinese
speaking educators and researchers. As a joint project run by the
Center for Women and Society and the Center for Lesbian and Gay Studies,
the Institute for Tongzhi Studies aspires to encourage discussions related
to issues of gender, sexuality, and sexual health. ITS seeks to
scrutinize layers of discriminating social attitudes, cultural
assumptions, and public policies against sexual minorities in Chinese
communities around the world. Through education, research, and
exchange, ITS coordinates with institutions with shared values in order to
build a body of scholarly works to further the study of gender and
sexuality in Chinese societies. |
