Dr Elena Azaola conducted research among Mexican inmates investigating homicide from a gender perspective and trying to answer the questions: Who does a man kill? Who does a woman kill? Why does a man kill? Why does a woman kill? And what do the differences mean from a gender perspective?

Dr Azaola works for the Center for Research and Higher Studies in Social Anthropology in Mexico. She has published widely on crime and violence among women and youth, abuse and exploitation of children, and correctional institutions and human rights.

This event is sponsored by the ANU Gender Institute.
