2005 - T.I.R.: Two Images in Re-construction: paternity and maternity. Overcoming Gender Stereotypes and Promoting Gender Equality.
International project implemented under the Open call for proposals VP/2003/031: "Promoting change in gender roles and overcoming gender stereotypes".
Main project aims :
- To analyse predominant gender stereotypes starting from the family itself;
- to act on men through the analysis of the perception they have about their own paternity and man role;
- to bring out the stereotypes on paternity/maternity, analysing to what extent they are shared by the fathers themselves and how they are diffused in society;
- to promote a more conscious, intense and responsible paternity in order to obtain an effective equality between women and men; 5) to point out new priorities on father/men issues because, starting from men’s changes, a new image of women could emerge highlighting their contribution to society.
