Imagine trying to navigate a room where two groups are shouting completely different versions of the truth. This work maps out exactly how these opposing groups talk and organize across eight different countries. It provides a playbook for leaders to build bridges and create inclusive rules that actually work in the real world.
Organizations and governments struggle to manage extreme social polarization and anti-gender movements, which can lead to political instability and workplace conflict.
A free-access online course for activists and researchers, and a policy toolkit for European institutions to support gender equality.
If you are a crisis management agency dealing with polarizing social debates — this project developed a policy toolkit and discourse analysis that helps identify how opposing groups frame issues to better navigate public sentiment.
If you are a DEI consultancy dealing with workplace inequality — this project developed a free-access online course that bridges research and activism to train employees on gender equality and inclusive practices.
If you are a civic tech provider dealing with low citizen engagement — this project developed pilot actions and innovative democratic practices that can be integrated into digital platforms to revitalize civil society alliances.
Based on available project data, the online course is free-access, but specific pricing for the policy toolkit is not mentioned.
The project was tested across 8 countries with a variety of socio-political contexts, suggesting the methodology is scalable across different European regions.
Based on available project data, the project emphasizes free-access programs and open toolkits for policymakers, but formal licensing terms are not specified.
The project runs from 2022-09-01 to 2025-08-31, meaning the final tools and toolkits are being finalized now.
It provides a policy toolkit specifically designed to help European institutions and policymakers support gender equality and counter anti-gender movements.
The consortium is research-heavy with 7 universities and 1 research organization, but it maintains a practical edge with 2 SMEs and 2 industry partners. With 11 partners across 8 countries, the group has a strong geographic spread, ensuring the resulting toolkits are not limited to a single national context.
