DESCRIPTION:In this Ceremonial Colloquium\, Dima Al Munajed will discuss h
 er award-winning doctoral thesis. In it\, she challenges the homogenizing
 \, victim-centered narratives that dominate post-2011 research on Syrian r
 efugee women. Instead\, she focuses on their strength and agency. Using an
  ethnographic\, comparative case study approach\, Munajed examined how the
  differing responses of the Lebanese and Turkish governments to the Syrian
  refugee crisis shaped the civic engagement of Syrian women during the sam
 e period of displacement. She found an overall increase in civic participa
 tion after the war. The findings of the thesis on the growth and diversity
  of Syrian women's feminist activism and awareness since 2011 provide valu
 able context for understanding current debates over the roles of Syrian wo
 men following the recent liberation of Syria from over 50 years of al-Assa
 d rule and Baathist policies.\n\nThe ZEF Doctoral Thesis Prize is awarded 
 every two years by the Friends of ZEF Association.
