Advancing women, gender, and social justice
The Mount Saint Vincent University Institute for the Study of Women (ISW) was revitalized in 2011 and renamed the Institute for Women, Gender, and Social Justice (IWGSJ) to reflect contemporary realities of the University’s ongoing commitment to gender equality and Women’s Studies. In February 2013, the Institute was renamed to honour Alexa McDonough and became the Alexa McDonough Institute for Women, Gender, and Social Justice (AMI).
Our Mission:
The AMI aims to achieve equity and improve lives through feminist initiatives that extend knowledge and understanding of issues related to women, girls, gender, and social justice for the Mount community and beyond.
