- In 2004, Jane Bennett co-edited Jacketed Women: Qualitative Research Methodologies on Sexualities and Gender in Africa with Charmaine Pereira. Bennett has a BA from the University of Natal, MPhil and EdD from Columbia University. She has an academic background in linguistics, literature, sociology, and feminist theory. Since 2009 she has been at the University of Cape Town, South Africa, where she is a Professor as well as the Director of the School of African and Gender Studies, Anthropology and Linguistics. Bennett was also Director of the African Gender Institute at University of Cape Town. The School of African and Gender Studies, Anthropology and Linguistics, created in 2012, merged four previously distinct departments: the African Gender Unit, the Centre for African Studies, the department of Social Anthropology, and department of Linguistics. She headed the English Department at the University of Cape Town between 2016 and 2018, on secondment, and is now the Director of Postgraduate Studies as well as the Deputy Dean of Humanities for Staffing and IT at the University of Cape Town. Bennett's work reflects the complexities of a researcher separating her personal experiences from her research. Her work demonstrates the interrelationship between feminist research and activism, particularly in Africa. Bennett is a program convener for the African Gender Institute's “Sexual and Reproductive Rights Programme.” She is also on the editorial team of Feminist Africa Journal. (en)
