The goal of this program is to help participants understand and address gender stereotypes while encouraging acceptance and compassion for people of all sexes The workshop will provide participants with the necessary tools to address and overcome discriminatory views by emphasizing the fact that gender sensitivity is about promoting mutual respect and understanding rather than dividing people.
