GENDER EQUALITY
Elisabeth: We did a one-week project with the help of some students with special needs.
On Thursday, November 19, the first thing we did was create groups with the roles of manager, collaborator, moderator and analyst. It was my turn to be an analyst and collaborator. Then we made a Logo for each person and uploaded them to a Drive folder. Then we put adjectives in what society saw of men and women and we understood that jealousy is not love but control.
On Friday, November 20, we began to create some questions to interview a woman and we would have to do the interview over the weekend. Then we saw a movie called "I'm not an easy man" that was about a man who hits his head and ends up in a parallel universe where women work and men stay at home taking care of children.
On Monday, November 23, we had a talk for the first two hours. In the rest of the hours we begin to edit the interview.
On Tuesday, November 24, during the first two hours and the last two, we continued editing the interview and at the third and fourth hours we made some posters.
Finally, on November 25, the international day against gender violence, we made some masks, then a contest of the posters and logos that we did and at the end an act in the courtyard with the masks that we made. At that event a singer came to sing to us and at the end they told us who won the award for the logo and the poster.
Yasine: We did it in groups of three people each doing their own activities, the first days we were watching talks and talking about these issues then we created some questions that we had to use to interview different women of different ages. Each one made an interview, and in class we were editing the videos and organizing the interviews. The last days we made some masks with designs about gender equality, like phrases and drawings and some posters with phrases. The last day we went out to the break with the masks and posters hung on our bodies, and when we finished, we watched the videos that our classmates had made.
Pachi: Gender equality is evolving over the years but there is still a long way to go for the two genders to be totally balanced.
The first step for this to happen is to equal 50-50 the salary between men and women. Another big step would be to remove stereotypes in society, because childhood is the most important stage of our life, since there they teach us how to behave, and it seems wrong to me that a girl is given toy kitchen utensils because she is a girl so that he plays, and a child is given a ball for being a child.
Marta: The project on gender equality that we did a couple of weeks ago in class, was very good, it opened the eyes of many people and saw another way of seeing gender violence. Almost everyone already knew what the project was about, because it is a task that must carry out together.
This task would not even have to exist, as we are in the 21st century and tit is striking that there are still people who do support gender violence or that if someone is raped it has been the fault of the raped. LET'S SAY "NO" TO GENDER VIOLENCE!!!
Nicole: It took us about a week to do it, the whole class participated and the activities we did were a talk in which they explained to us what is right or wrong in love relationships, they also showed us videos about that, we made masks representing gender violence so that all women who are going through this know that they are not alone.
The talk helped us a lot since we got aware and learned to set limits.
I hope all this is over and we never have to make these movements for things that should not be happening anymore.
Julieta: The project on gender violence was very fun and interesting, since it helps us all not to have problems or to know when we are in a situation of risk, abuse, both physical and psychological, and how to try to get out of one of those situations since it is quite difficult.
We learned new things about love, jealousy, many things that are important to know so that tomorrow we do not have problems of that kind, because it can lead to more and end in very bad things including death.
Soumia: In this project what I liked most was watching a movie called AdĂș.
I liked the characteristics of the film and I love the performance of the two brothers. This is the summary of the movie more or less:
In a desperate attempt to reach Europe and crouched before an airstrip in Cameroon, a six-year-old boy and his older sister wait to sneak into the holds of a plane. Not too far away, an environmental activist contemplates the terrible image of an elephant, dead and without tusks. Thousands of kilometers to the north, in Melilla, a group of civil guards prepares to confront the angry mob of Sub-Saharan Africans who have started the assault on the fence. I recommend you watch it.
