On April 30th in Journalists’ Club, Skopje, promotion of “Manual for Gender Democracy for peer educators” was organized. This is the final activity of the project “From Gender Inequality to Gender Democracy”. The manual is available in Macedonian, Albanian and English.

Coordinator of the project team presented the project activities and objectives. Further presented was the content of the Manual and the process of preparation which included students and scholars who had the opportunity to review the draft version and with their comments and suggestions contribute for improvement i.e. contributed in the preparation of the Manual to be understandable and usable for the target group. The trainers shared their thoughts about the trainings and recommendations for future work. Two participants of the trainings spoke about the experience and knowledge they gained with the trainings, as well as personal capacities to conduct peer educations on topics related to gender democracy.

The goal of this Manual and the project is to raise awareness and knowledge among young people in Macedonia on the issue of gender democracy. The Manual covers areas such as gender-based violence and gender discrimination, including all topics related to these issues, as well as youth activism and gender democracy. The manual consists of two parts: theoretical, where relevant terms are defined and explained, and practical part in which educational workshops with instructions for their implementation are presented.

The event was attended by representatives from the Network members, representatives from civil society organizations that the Network collaborates with, and participants from the trainings – future peer educators.

The project is supported by Schuller Helfen Leben, Germany.
