Applications Invited for Positively Men Challenge
Organization: UNESCO
Event Duration: 14 Jun. 2021 - 20 Jul. 2021
Apply By: 20 Jul 2021
About the Organization:
UNESCO is the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. It seeks to build peace through international cooperation in Education, the Sciences and Culture. UNESCO's programmes contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals defined in Agenda 2030, adopted by the UN General Assembly in 2015. Political and economic arrangements of governments are not enough to secure the lasting and sincere support of the peoples. Peace must be founded upon dialogue and mutual understanding. Peace must be built upon the intellectual and moral solidarity of humanity.
Positively Men Challenge:
At UNESCO, we believe that no society can thrive when girls remain out of school, that no country can take up technological challenges if the scientific fields exclude women, that no community can grow healthy and cohesive until all forms of gender based violence are eradicated. This is why gender equality is a global priority of UNESCO. Overcoming these challenges requires the full engagement of men and women. Unfortunately, evidence suggests that many men still feel unconcerned by efforts in favour of gender equality.
- If you are one of those who speak up against gender-
based violence, challenge inequalities and hegemonic
practices in your community, in your family, in your
workplace and with your peers, - if you reject stereotypical perceptions of virility and
toxic manhood, - if you are supporting women’s empowerment and
inclusive societies,
What we want to hear: We are interested to hear what you have accomplished in
one or more of these categories:
- Preventing male violence and aggression (such as bullying in schools, gangs, verbal or physical violence against women and gender-based violence in general);
- Supporting women’s rights and empowerment (such as girls’ right to education, artistic freedom of women, increasing women’s autonomy and leadership);
- Supporting care and affection (active fatherhood engagement, providing care to children or the elderly, expressing positive emotions, encouraging peers to
ask for help when they need it); - Engaging with the community, especially men, to promote and live the values of respect for diversity and gender equality, rejecting gender stereotypes and speaking out in case of gender-based discrimination.
Eligibility: This call is open to people from all parts of the globe who are engaged and practicing any form of positive masculinity.
Deadline: 20th July, 2021
