Gender mainstreaming – film and gender map
Gender mainstreaming is a strategy to achieve gender equality on all
social levels. However, what does gender mainstreaming imply for persons with
migrational background? Which gender-specific hurdles and obstacles do male and
female migrants encounter? These are questions which the film project Migration
and Gender deals with. The “gender map“ is supposed to provide
information and further details concerning the topic.
Implementation: Association Autonomous Austrian Women’s Shelters
