<h3>R﻿reservation required</h3>V﻿enue: Grand Salon, Maison de l&#x27;Asie (Bibliothèque de l&#x27;EFEO Paris), 22 Av. du Président Wilson, 75116 Paris K﻿eynote Speaker: Prof. Françoise Robin (INALCO/ IFRAE)A﻿bstractThe world of Tibetan and Himalayan studies, an otherwise vibrant and innovative field of academic research on the world stage, has been slow in embracing or even making room for gender studies. Women in Tibet, edited by Janet Gyatso and Hanna Havnevik in 2005, was a watershed and certainly filled in a blank, emboldening other researchers to embark upon that small-troden path. But much remains to be done. This brief talk will explore the possible reasons for that late awakening, and will suggest potential developments for the future.W﻿orkshop sponsors<ul><li>École pratique des hautes études (PSL-EPHE)</li><li>East Asian Civilizations Research Centre (CRCAO, UMR 8155, Paris) </li><li>French Society for Tibetan Studies (SFEMT)</li></ul>
