We want to carry out this project because we deeply believe in the transformative power of experiential education in a multicultural environment. We want 30 young people to have the opportunity to develop critical thinking in the face of cultural stereotypes, especially those related to gender and sexuality. We aspire that the participants of this project will gain the necessary tools to become active citizens and agents of change in their local contexts and promote more inclusive and equitable communities. The consortium has decided to carry out this project in Spain because, according to European social indices, it is the safest environment among the participating countries for women and people who are gender and sexual dissidents. We consider this safety a fundamental part of creating an open and equitable space for learning and personal development. ISSUES AND NEEDS - EUROPEAN GENDER EQUALITY INDEX: This index measures gender inequality according to variables such as violence, employability, time availability, economic position, health and education among others. Most of the countries in this consortium that belong to the European community barely exceed 50% equality (Bulgaria 59.9%, Hungary 59.2%, Lithuania 58.4%, Italy 63.8% and Spain 73.7%). - EUROPEAN LGTB WELL-BEING INDEX: Ilga Europe makes its annual report according to variables such as equality and non-discrimination, family, hate crimes and hate speech, bodily integrity, civil society among others. According to this indicator, it is not safe to exist as an LGTB person in any of the countries of the consortium except Spain, hence the decision to host mobility in Catalonia (Bulgaria 20%, Georgia 27%, Hungary 33%, Lithuania 23%, Italy 22% and Spain 65%). - DISCRIMINATION BY STATE ADMINISTRATIONS AGAINST TRANS PEOPLE: According to the latest Transgender Europe report (2022) only 11 out of 54 European countries and partner countries have gender recognition mechanisms based on personal declaration. 11 countries still require sterilisation and 28 require a diagnosis of mental illness in order to change one's name. In 19 countries divorce is required to make a change of registered sex because marriage between two people of the same registered sex is illegal. Malta is the only European country that has achieved depathologisation of transgender people and in only 5 countries is conversion therapy prohibited. - ECONOMIC INDEPENDENCE AND THE LABOUR MARKET: The COVID-19 pandemic severely affected the labour market situation of both transgender people and women, but in the case of women it exacerbated pre-existing disadvantages. Employment rates declined significantly for both women and men in 2020, especially during the second quarter. Compared to men, women were more negatively affected by a decrease in working hours and an increase in absences from work. By 2021, female employment rates had been restored to 2019 levels or above in 19 of the 27 EU Member States, currently women's working hours have only been restored in 9 countries. The European Union's European Recovery and Resilience Mechanism Regulation does not take into account the gender approach in its policies for the economic and employment recovery of member states, which leads us to predict a continuation of the gender gap in the near future. - NEW TECHNOLOGIES AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: The internet era has changed the way we work. The European Institute for Gender Equality published a report in January 2022 with alarming findings on how AIs and platform work have increased gender inequality in the labour market. In their report they also highlight that the design of AIs can reinforce gender stereotypes and facilitate new forms of violence. OBJECTIVES - Aim: Enlarge the knowledge and offerings skills for active citizenship on gender-based discrimination for 30 young people. - Objective 1: Enlarge the knowledge of 30 young people on gender-based discrimination dynamics . - Objective 2: Offering skills to became an active citizen against gender based discrimination to 30 young people. - Objective 3: Promote critical thinking and active bystander intervention on 30 young people regarding gender-based discrimination.
