Introduction

The world of Tibetan and Himalayan studies, an otherwise vibrant and innovative field of academic research on the world stage, has been slow in embracing or even making room for gender studies. Women in Tibet, edited by Janet Gyatso and Hanna Havnevik in 2005, was a watershed and certainly filled in a blank, emboldening other researchers to embark upon that small-trodden path. But much remains to be done. This brief talk will explore the possible reasons for that late awakening, and will suggest potential developments for the future.
