Male Survivors of Sexual Violence in Bosnia-Herzegovina

You are invited to a seminar which will be held on Wednesday 1st February 2017, from 12.30pm to 2.00pm, in Seminar Room 21D51, Dalriada House, Ulster University at Jordanstown.  Dr Heleen Touquet is a researcher and lecturer at the University of Leuven (KUL) in Belgium and a research associate at the Centre d'Etudes de Conflits et Crises Internationaux at the Universite de Louvain La Neuve.   Her current research focuses on gender, masculinities and sexual violence in conflict.  Dr Touquet will talk about male victims of sexual violence during the conflict in Bosnia-Herzegovina.  She will focus, specifically, on how the discursive space for talking about the topic has evolved over the last ten years and how (some) male victims have got recognition, reflecting on what this implies for theories of gender and nationalism and theoretical analyses of men as victims of conflict-related sexual violence.
