Think Outside the Cocks
A guide through feminist de/construction of media practices which deal with the production and representation of gender identities and new media activism against patriarchy and misogyny. Take a courageous cyber ride with a new generation of feminists. Start your own media production, in summer 2015, become street artist in Belgrade, make your radio interview that will create an atmosphere of energy and “we can do it!” attitude. Through the production of new feminist media knowledge and creation of gender sensitive and feminist media programs (available via social networks and therefore visible for a broad audience), we will contribute to the deconstruction of stereotypes of gender equality policies, feminism and feminists, as well as to empowering and inspiring young women to develop and express their creativity and knowledge, and to changing attitudes among younger generations when it comes to gender equality, women’s and minority human rights.
With the participation of feminist journalists, PR consultants, and media activists from Serbia and the Balkan region.
As part of the program, Tiit INC (a feminist group from Skopje) will drive us through, on their new project Intimate Maps of Female Cities, a radio show broadcasted live from a moving car, set to happen in all Ex-Yugoslavian capitals. They’ve already mapped Skopje and Zagreb. Belgrade seems to be a great next stop.
Organized in cooperation with BeFem - Feminist Cultural Center (Serbia), the Space of Gender and Media Culture K-Zone Association (Croatia) and Libela – a portal on gender, sex and democracy (Croatia), members of The Gender Cultural Media Practices Network. The platform for gender cultural practices is an informal network of organizations dealing with cultural gender practices through media, festival and production programs, with the intention of strengthening the regional (women’s) civil scene through exchanging programs and experiences, as well as creating new program contents.
