This collaboration between the Asian University for Women (AUW) and the Wellesley Centers for Women resulted in the design of a year-long gender studies course, Women Shaping Society. A requirement for all second-year students at AUW, Women Shaping Society will provide an alternative discourse to challenge prevailing gender norms in Asia and help students become a vital part of the region’s new role in global, social, and economic development.  A multi-volume course design complete with reading materials, questions, and suggested student projects is being developed by de Silva-de Alwis for the course.
