The Women’s Issues Information Centre, together with international partners from the MARTA Centre (Latvia), association The Future Now (Bulgaria) and association Colectivo MosaiQ (Spain), are organising the international conference „Barbie as a warrior against GBV“ as part of the „Warriors against gender-based violence“ project.
International conference „Barbie as a warrior against GBV” is a dynamic and innovative event aimed at engaging young people and youth workers in discussions and actions related to creating safe spaces and preventing gender-based violence. The conference aims to create a space where young people and youth workers can explore the concept of safe spaces and their role in combating gender-based violence, as well as the impact of popular culture, such as Barbie films, in shaping perceptions and attitudes related to gender roles and equality.
We are kindly inviting young people and youth workers to attend the international conferece „Barbie as a warrior against GVB”, which will take place on October 18th in Vilnius. During the event, you will be introduced to an innovative virtual safe space, hear lessons learnt and experiences gained from the project’s implementers, and explore the topics of violence, gender equality and sexuality together with experts
