Women, Peace and Security Course
LSE WPS Centre Two-Day Intensive Training Course on Combating Misogyny, Violence and Extremism
Dates: 11-12 June 2026
Led by Prof Joanna Lewis, Dr Sajjan M Gohel and Ms Eve Register
Building on the success of the LSE WPS Centre Intensive Training Course, we are delighted to launch a new training course on Misogyny, Violence and Extremism in June 2026. This course is aimed at policy makers and practitioners looking to gain a clear understanding of misogyny and its repercussions, but no prior knowledge is required.
Absolutely exceptional - the most interesting course with robust content that was so rich and informative.
The course will provide foundational sessions on the history of misogyny, misogyny and the manosphere, misogyny and ideological extremism and misogyny as a political ideology of hostile states. We will hear from a range of academics and practitioners, including those working on misogyny and extremism in relation to domestic violence as well as technology-fuelled misogyny and gender-based violence.
