The ideology of gender dichotomization and hierarchy that values masculinity over femininity has found wide acceptance and remains largely unchallenged. The aim of this forum is to engage you in a discussion that will enrich our understanding of the ways in which constructions of what it means to be male and female has a bearing on access to education for individuals living in refugee camps.<\/p>\n<p>Concurrently, we are in the process of preparing an annotated bibliography onthe same topic. We welcome your suggestions as to scholarly research that we could include in this project.<\/p>\n<p>Before contributing to this forum\u2019s discussion, please consider the following questions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What role do ideologies of masculinity and femininity play in creating policies governing lives in refugee camps?<\/li>\n<li>What role do these ideologies play in everyday lives of people living in refugee camps?<\/li>\n<li>What role do these ideologies play in access to education for men and women living in refugee camps?<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Information obtained through this forum will be compiled and posted on the RRN website, and shared with BHER partners.<\/p>\n<p>We thank you in advance for your participation.<\/p>\n<p>The link to the forum is here: http:\/\/refugeeresearch.net\/ms\/forums\/2014\/10\/07\/impacts-of-ideologies-of-masculinity-and-femininity-in-access-to-education-in-context-of-forced-migration\/.<\/p>\n<p>To contribute to the forum discussion, please go to http:\/\/refugeeresearch.net\/ms\/forums\/how-to-participate\/.
