COURSE DESCRIPTION 

 How to increase gender equality and reduce inequalities in general?

Primary SDG 5, secondary SDG 10 

SDG 5 – Achieve gender equality and empower women and girls.   

SDG 10– Reduce inequality within and among countries.   

Problem Based Learning Methodology 

1. Problematize to raise the analysis 

2. We get informed/ We play/ We investigate/ We propose (call to action). 

3. We work towards our final products during the two days together. 

 PROBLEM STATEMENT 

Gender-based prejudices have a big influence throughout life (school, workplace, family and institutional framework).  

 Working questions:  

• Do you consider that you have chosen your educational career freely? 
• If not, what has affected in your decision? 
• Why do you think there are some masculinized or feminized sectors? 
• Which are the main consequences of this? 
• What does it mean to be a woman in the labor market? 
• Which are the main inequalities and who are the most affected? 
• What can the students and the schools do to take part in the change?
