#GenderStruggles

The #GenderStruggles: Building Community Resilience via Creativity and Digital Media project investigates feminist and queer responses to challenges to gender equality and sexual rights posed by anti-gender mobilizations in Germany, Turkey and Sweden through the creation of a platform between activists/activist-scholars in three countries for sharing knowhow, experience and expertise regarding coping mechanisms and resistance strategies. The main aim is building communities of resilience among those who struggle for gender equality and sexual rights. The project defines gender struggles as feminist and queer activists/activist-scholars’ efforts to continue influencing gender policies, producing policy-relevant research and agenda setting while coping with challenges posed by anti-gender mobilizations.
