03-Second focus group

realized on 08/05/2017


The second focus group of the "Gender Perspective in EU Mobility Programs" project was held in Potenza with the participation of young people who had transnational mobility experience. The objective of the focus group is to understand the issues that hinder or limit the participation of women in European programmes, notably in transnational mobility. In fact, the project, approved through the Erasmus Plus Programme KA2 Strategic Partnerships for Youth, aims at integrating the gender perspective with the European Union mobility programmes, in order to enhance the visibility of the gender issue in youth organisations. Our organisation, as planned for every partner in the project, had also developed a research on good practices of gender integration, pointing out some very interesting practices for Italy, EU and non-Members Countries. It’s clear that gender discrimination is a global/transnational problem and has effects on the entire life of young women all over the world including Europe, where discriminatory actions or sexual harassments still persist against young women. Therefore, the project, discussing on the prevention tips against the measures and the development of reliable solutions, will help to increase the quality of women's mobility in the exchange programs.
