Call for participants to the training course “WHO IS THE DIRECTOR / OF YOUR GENDER ROLE” in Armenia 28th of August to 4th of September

  Loesje is looking for a participant from Germany for the training course “Who is the director of your gender role?”. It is a training that aims to raise gender awareness for people who in different ways are involved in youth work; youth workers or people involved in a youth organisation. There will be participants joining from Armenia, Georgia, Ukraine, Jordan, Palestine, Egypt, Poland, Sweden and Germany.   In the training we will give tools to work with the question of gender with youth. We will go into personal experiences and the current situation on gender politics in the different countries that will be represented in the seminar. We will also see in what way the discrimination of women go hand in hand with discrimination based on class, ethnicity, age, sexuality, functionality and so on. Lastly we will outline different ways and strategies to mainstream gender awareness in our work with youth.   The costs for the participants would be 30% of travel expenses to Diljan, Armenia. Accommodation and food would be 100% covered by the project. This requires full participation from 28th of August (arrival day) until 4th of September (departure day). It is also required that you are able to communicate in English and that you are a resident in Germany.   Please send an email to safaa@loesje.org  if you are interested, with a short motivation on why you would want to be part of the training course.   Looking forward to hearing from you!
