To lead the activities of the world cafe will be Cittadinanzattiva Puglia and ARCI Foggia. «We will have a great opportunity to discuss with citizens the issues of inequality and gender stereotypes, but also gender violence and the LGBTQ+ community – explains Margherita Setteducaticontact person for Cittadinanzattiva Puglia – . We will do it in a comfortable and relaxing environment to seek together new awareness and good practices aimed at bridging the gender gap”. Following the entry into force of the Regional Law n.7/2007 for gender policies and work-life balance services in Puglia, Cerignola is committed to making the territory truly personal/family friendly, promoting the effective development of conditions for the full use of the potential inherent in each tool for the conciliation of life and work times and for the creation of a truly inclusive system that is attentive to gender issues.
The project, therefore, sees the creation of a training course aimed at employees of the Municipality of Cerignola on gender identityin order to detect gender impact indicators and draw up a balance sheet useful for improving, promoting equal and inclusive policies. This path is followed by an action aimed at the city through the creation of three World Cafes to stimulate attention to the topic in an informal way through the sharing of an aperitif, to detect ideas, proposals and promote a community that respects the principle of gender equality. The next appointments will be: Friday, July 12at 6:00 pm, at Caffè Roosevelt (Viale Roosevelt 24) we will talk about “Violence against women, at home with the enemy.
