Active participation in workshop on gender equality and feminism
On May 14th, a group of young women gathered in Poti to take part in the workshop on gender equality and feminism. From the start, these women expressed a strong interest in learning more about the meaning of feminism. - I like to talk about gender equality, but this was the first time I discussed goals and strategies, said one participant during the evaluation.
Leading the workshop was Anja Westberg, the Swedish intern at Fund Sukhumi. She provided some information about the history of feminism and acquainted the participants with a number of famous feminist pioneers. During the workshop, participants enthusiastically engaged in various discussions, and they also shared some personal experiences about dealing with gender stereotypes. By using interactive exercises, the aim of the workshop was to encourage everyone to think independently and express their own opinions about gender issues.
The project is implemented with the support of the organization EED Evangelischer
