You will be given a certificate of participation on completion of course which will look great on your CV. 

Participants will have the opportunity ‘meet up’ with old friends or make new ones, and develop good relations. 

Topics covered:

Gender roles and stereotypes-what are they, where do they come from and how can we break free of them.

Gender equality is for everybody– a look at gender equality locally and globally and thinking about ways you may or may not be effected by issues of inequality related to your gender.

Introduction to Trans/intersex/non-binary people-trans issues are a hot topic in the media at the minute, but news items are often full of misinformation. This session has been created by trans people and will give you a real foundation of knowledge on the reality of trans, intersex and non-binary lives helping you to be a better ally/friend/family member/colleague.

How do our lives and surroundings influence our own gender identity-what is your own gender identity, how do you express it and how is it influenced by the time, place and culture that you live in. Includes examination of gender in the media. 

Virtual film nights-watching films with particular relevance to the topics covered through out the workshop with discussion after wards
