The Sikh Research Institute (SikhRI) has released its ninth research report in the State of the Panth series titled Women & Gender in Sikhi, which aims to understand and explore Sikh conceptions of women and gender, responses to gender-based inequality and oppression, and framings of masculinity.
How did the Sikh Gurus address women’s issues? How did they frame or reframe gender? Regarding women’s and gender issues within the Panth today, why is there a disparity between principles and practice, and how do we close that gap?
Join us in conversation with Harinder Singh and Jasleen Kaur as we try to understand Women & Gender in Sikhi from a Gurmat (Guru’s Way) perspective, as inferred from Bani (wisdom), Tavarikh (history), and Rahit (lifestyle).
