Women and girls represent more than half of the world’s population and therefore also half of its potential, and yet, still today the inequalities persist everywhere. Aside from its unethical nature, gender inequality deprives a society, men as well as women, of the resources, skills and competencies it needs in order to progress. The potential contribution the women could make is too often overlooked, and this was shown to have negative effects on national well-being and wealth. In fact, one of the effects of the coronavirus pandemic has been to highlight gender inequality as a significant political issue. First, women are more likely than men to be exposed to the risks of unemployment and financial vulnerability, more likely to be in low-paid and/or temporary jobs. Second, due to intensified homeworking, they are more likely than men to have been placed in the position of having to combine the demands of work, home-schooling, housework and caring for other family members. More importantly, never before has a health emergency brought to the surface the close link between crisis and increase in violence against women and girls, as well as gender‐based discriminations and abuse, not only in low‐ and middle‐income countries but across the globe. With this project we have highlighted, the importance of bringing an end to all forms of violence against women and girls, since it has been fully recognized as central to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), with particular emphasis on SDG 5 on gender equality and women’s empowerment. Furthermore, this project aimed to promote gender equity and equality both in society and also sport. Despite the progress and increase in women's sports, there are still differences in terms of equal opportunities in some sports. Furthermore, media coverage and sponsorships are not at the same level and gender equality remains a problem leading to severe discrimination, penalizing many athletes. Some key skills for working life, such as leadership skills or self-confidence, are mainly taught in sports that are considered masculine. While, empathy or self-discipline are taught in sports that are considered feminine. The objectives of the project were following: -The main objective was to raise awareness on gender issues and to examine how sport and culture can be used as an entry point to support gender equality. -Create awareness among youth about gender equality and equity, gender discrimination, differences in opportunities between genders, their own preconceptions and motivate to challenge these. -Value gender equality, transferring young people the skills necessary for the performance of sport activities and in life in general, in order to educate them about the issue of gender diversity, the management of problematic situations caused by gender differences and cultural perspectives on gender roles creating a common understanding on gender stereotypes. -Practicing and promoting sport as a valuable tool for youth, social aggregation, participation, solidarity, at the same time, useful for personal growth, the enhancement of skills and the strengthening of self-esteem guaranteeing the fundamental right for all citizens to access to sports activities. -Develop participants’ critical thinking through activities that made participants reflect on media influence on gender norms (reinforcing stereotypes, misrepresentation of the women, etc.) and inequalities in labour market. -Sensitize participants about the different types of gender violence and encourage and empower them to think and act to prevent it, through promotion of forms of non-violent youth activism and non-violent confilict resolution practices.
