What's about...

The project focuses on the sensitive issue of Gender Discrimination and how daily behaviors and reactions contribute to it. We also explore how the Covid-19 pandemic has impacted this topic.

 

While many EU organizations have worked to combat inequality through education and awareness, we believe more engaging approaches are needed. In the era of short films and audio-visual content, our goal is to create a powerful video campaign to educate participants and viewers on how common language and actions perpetuate stereotypes.

Objectives...

  • Raise awareness and knowledge among young participants about the progress of women’s rights.
  • Motivate participants to support and promote equality.
  • Address, confront, and deconstruct gender stereotypes.
  • Examine how gender stereotypes impact mental health.
  • Promote gender diversity through a video campaign.
  • Conduct surveys, questionnaires, and interviews to gather data from the community.
  • Increase understanding of how gender-based violence and discrimination violate human rights and hinder the development of a democratic society.
  • Raise public awareness of gender-based inequality in various areas of daily life, including work and interpersonal relationships, as well as the relevant legislation.
  • Enhance and strengthen participants’ abilities to address these issues and respond to instances of racism and prejudice, whether as victims or bystanders.
