🏢 About the local organisation
The main goal of this project is raising awareness on gender inequality that is tied to cultural stigmas, traditions and stereotypes and reinforcing the improvement of the lives of all members of society by using the medium of art and a public exhibition by the end of the project. In the first week you will attend interactive workshops which provide a safe space for learning and discussing openly about gender inequality issues. Focus of the second week will be creating artworks and projects for the exhibition. One of the projects will be a video-diary that captures the whole experience. By this project we wish to create a network of activists who will continue to spread the word on reinforcement of gender equality and who will able to create their own project in their home countries.
