Committee of Women and Psychoanalysis of the International Psychoanalytic Association, (COWAP)

Leading international thinkers in the field will discuss contemporary answers to Freud’s classic question “what do women want?” Today, women are exploring new gender identities, gender dynamics, and family configurations. They want to be thought of as whole persons and free themselves from the echoes of a misogynistic sociocultural history. Of course, each woman will have her own answer.
