Description
Shanarani, a name derived from the Mexican indigenous Purépecha people that can be used for either gender, signifies the attempt to overcome gender stereotyping and discrimination with a focus on working with modern media (like film and music) and reflection, individually and in groups.
The training aims to help participants - either as youth workers to multiply the approach, or as young people to use it with peers - learn about the nature of stereotypes, how to identify stereotypes and how to deconstruct them. By improving the ability of participants to actively and consciously engage with gender stereotypes, we can hope to work on overcoming these, allowing for a more independent and self-determined life and an overall reduction in gender discrimination in society.
European Dimension
Gender representations and equality measures will be compared for different countries of participants.
Expected Outcome
- Train their awareness and critical thinking towards stereotypical portrayals in film and music
- Show and discuss the connection between such expectations, life decisions and consequences in their lifes
- Empower participants to take decisions based on personal needs and preferences
- Enable them to conduct a discussion on the influence of gender stereotypes and argue for their personal needs
