We are launching the third edition of the “Gender Doesn’t Matter” competition for the best thesis focused on equality-related topics. The main prize is PLN 2000, and an honorable mention is worth PLN 1000. Theses defended this year at the University of Zielona Góra in any field of study are eligible for submission.
The main goal of the competition is to encourage students of the University of Zielona Góra to explore issues related to gender – both from a biological and cultural perspective – in the context of equality and diversity. On a practical level, we also value interest in topics such as discrimination and unequal treatment based on gender, as well as the search for ways to address these challenges.
The winner of the competition will receive a voucher worth PLN 2000. The competition jury will also award two honorable mentions, each worth PLN 1000. The competition is held under the honorary patronage of the Marshal of the Lubusz Voivodeship, Marcin Jabłoński.
Applications should be submitted via email to rownosc@uz.zgora.pl by September 30, 2025.
