The Institute for Gender Research is extending the due date for the essay contest.

The issue of self-care is becoming more and more problematic with the COVID-19 pandemic. With this ongoing situation, it is not easy to get close to your studying self.

You might feel lonely studying alone, or find yourself dependent on your pet, or feel insecure and suffocating.

We would like to hear these stories from you, since these are problems not a single individual is going through, but everyone is experiencing.

Both videos or essays are available for submission. Please send your work by October 4 via email (igender@snu.ac.kr).
