    Sabancý University, in collaboration with the International Hrant
    Dink Foundation and Anadolu Kultur is holding the second Workshop in
    Commemoration of murdered journalist Hrant Dink. The title of the
    workshop is "Gender, Ethnicity and the Nation-State: Anatolia and
    Its Neighboring Regions."

    The workshop is taking place at the Tobacco Depot (Tutun Deposu),
    Hacý Mimi Mahallesi, Luleci Hendek Caddesi No. 12, Tophand, Istanbul
    and runs from May 21-24.

    Registration is required for the workshop on Thursday, Friday and
    Sunday, but events on Saturday are open to the public.

    Drawing on Hrant Dink's legacy of highlighting existing human
    connections and imagining new ones across physical and imagined
    borders, Hrant Dink Memorial Workshops seek to initiate and encourage
    interdisciplinary academic dialogue among scholars working on Anatolia
    and its neighboring regions.

    Gender and ethnicity have been key categories of differentiation and
    conflict in nationalisms and nation-states, interacting with each
    other in multiple ways. Hrant Dink Memorial Workshop 2009 focuses on
    the ways in which constructions and transformations of gender and
    ethnicity in and beyond nation-states have shaped Anatolia and its
    neighboring regions in the 20th century.
