Objectives

We envisioned (and still envision) the project to contribute to a more equal and inclusive society because of raised awareness about gender equality among young people and improved competencies among youth workers to work on the topic. The whole project aimed to increase the awareness of gender equality among young people by creating and using portable educational escape rooms as an effective method of engaging young people. Escape Gender Inequality was a project with the following objectives: • enhance youth worker’s knowledge and experience of non-formal learning activities related to gender equality and the support of young people’s own ideas • provide space and time for participants (Youth workers and young people) to reflect upon the different aspects of gender equality such as discrimination against girls and young women, traditional gender roles and stereotypes, and violence against girls and young women • upskilling youth work practitioners in the use of educational escape rooms as an effective tool for engaging young people and youth work communities • Encourage young people to become active citizens and take initiative by creating educational escape rooms and implementing public events • Create 3-4 portable educational escape room concepts on the topic of gender equality to spread to the youth work community
