(odnośnik otworzy się w nowym oknie)
The qualitative fieldwork (ethnographic fieldwork in selected and collaborative CSOs, focus group discussions and organisers, photo-voicing trajectories combined with interviews) will be summarised in internal country reports, that provide the starting point for the cross-country comparisons that shed light on the used definitions and conceptualisations of gender empowerment in implemented practices in CSOs.This report will provide an overview of these cross-country comparisons of definitions and conceptualisations of gender empowerment in implemented practices in CSOs.
Cross-country reports on the media discourses and digital cultures on gender, inclusion and gender empowerment
(odnośnik otworzy się w nowym oknie)
In this report, European comparative analyses are conducted on the media discourses on narratives on gender empowerment, both in social media (e.g., Twitter, Instagram, etc.) and traditional (written) media (consisting of dominant and alternative journals and media outlets). Per country, each academic partner will conduct the analyses of the selected hot debates within their respective country, and based on the country reports, a comparative analysis will be made. The country reports will allow us to go more in-depth into the country specific debates (e.g., related to German language, local law cases, etc.). The comparative approach to how these hot debates have impacted and shaped narratives on gender empowerment across European countries. Special attention will be given to how these discourses vary across media channels, cultural contexts and life spheres. For each selected sub-theme, systematic literature reviews that are interdisciplinary and comparative in nature will be published in highly ranked internationally peer-reviewed journals. An overview of these comparative analyses will be presented in this report.
Cross-country comparison on policies that promote gender empowerment across Europe
(odnośnik otworzy się w nowym oknie)
To contextualise the fieldwork, first, an overview of local, regional and national policies on the promotion of gender empowerment and inclusion per country will be provided. Afterwards, these country-specific reports will be combined into a cross-country European comparison of all relevant policies to fully assess the context in which gender empowerment initiatives are formulated and promoted. In each of these reports,we will have attention for the situatedness of intersectionality, the gender equality index (EIGE), changes over time as well as the distinct spheres in which gender empowerment will be studied in the ReIncluGen project (social, cultural, economic sphere, education and media).
Secondary data analyses on changing attitudes on gender empowerment across Europe
(odnośnik otworzy się w nowym oknie)
Secondary data analyses will be conducted on a wide variety of European countries, using large scale secondary data (i.e., European Social Survey; Eurobarometer, European Values Survey, World Values Survey, etc), to obtain a historical and comparative view on changing attitudes towards gender inequalities and gender empowerment and prevailing gender gaps across different social, economic and cultural spheres, and how they vary across time and per partner country.
Policy briefs for local, regional, national and European stakeholders
(odnośnik otworzy się w nowym oknie)
Policy briefs for local, regional, national and European stakeholders. Building further on insights from WP2, we aim to add the findings of WP3 to adjust the overall framework in which CSOs function and set up their practices, and are evaluated. In order to inform policy makers and make a sustainable contribution, policy briefs will be written, with specific policy maker target groups in mind (local, regional, national and European policy makers).
A series of MOOCs integrated in the digital platform
(odnośnik otworzy się w nowym oknie)
In order to facilitate the sharing and translating of the research findings into practice and policy making, policy briefs and MOOCs are developed for European policy makers and civil society organisations. Each of the policy briefs summarise the main findings of the ReIncluGen project and include an additional section on how these findings add to European policy making. Each of the MOOCs focus on the central concepts of the project as well as the good practices toolkit developed in the project. Each MOOC will be accompanied withadditional training and exercises/reflection tools. Completing the entire series of MOOCs results in the obtaining of a certificate that can be used to prove one’s successful attendance.
