"Confessions of a male sexist: how implicit bias holds women back"?

on 22 May, 2014, 15.00-16.30

Gellner Room

Budapest, V. Nádor utca 9. 

Introduction: László Kontler, Pro-Rector for Hungarian and European Affairs

Moderator: Andrea Pető, Associate Professor, Department of Gender Studies

Curt Rice is currently a Fellow at the Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study, where he is writing a book on implicit bias and how it affects the career trajectories of men and women differently, especially in academia. He has been involved in many European projects on issues related to gender equality in research institutions and has written extensively on this topic, including pieces in The Guardian, Inside Higher Ed, The Telegraph, Aftenposten, Morgenbladet and many others. Rice has also just been named by the Norwegian Minister for Education and Research to be the new head of the Norwegian Committee on Gender Balance in Research (kifinfo.no). For a sample of Rice's perspectives and an overview of his activities, see curt-rice.com. In this talk, he will argue that many of the structural barriers women encounter are rooted in implicit bias and he will discuss some of the responses people in leadership positions can effectuate to reduce these barriers.
