By Lara; Laura; Ana; Mariana; Manuel; Rui; Duarte; Joana Throughout the week of April 8th to 12th, as part of the Erasmus+ Gender Neutr-All Project with mobility to Greece, activities were carried out that provided Portuguese high school students with new insights into the country. By staying with families from different cultures, religions, and certainly another nationality, the students formed bonds with Greek students from the Vartholomio School, developing lasting and unique friendships. In order to get to know each other - throughout the week - activities such as workshops and guided tours of places near the city of Vartholomio were planned. One of the places they visited was the University of Patras, where they met with other French and Portuguese peers. An ice-breaking activity and a project on bullying in schools were also conducted with the aim of addressing this issue, as well as a reflection and analysis activity on "Antigone and the gender question - analysis of Greek

Great Women in Arts, Montemor-o-Novo

  Activity developed in mobility to Portugal "Great Women in Arts". "Being an artist is hard. by  Emília Isaías Gender inequality is an inescapable reality of many worlds, and in the arts it is no exception. Through the activity "Great Women in Arts", students were exposed to the choice of a work of Portuguese artist and challenged to reproduce their own interpretation of the artist. The choice was based without prior knowledge of the gender of the author, only in the end were revealed the authors of the works. The students did not consider their choices based on the author’s gender, it was spontaneous choice, only choosing what they found easier to reproduce. Artists are Artists... That's it!"

We sing without fear

"Τραγουδάμε δίχως Φόβο”, a Greek transposition of Vivir Quintana’s “Canción sin Miedo” by femininities of the Open Orchestra “Canción sin Miedo” by Vivir Quintana is a landmark song against femicides that are committed daily in Mexico and in Latin America more broadly. The composer, Vivir Quintana, sang and recorded this song in a highly symbolic move, together with mothers from Oaxaca, Mexico, whose daughters were victims of femicide.  Inspired by Vivir Quintana’s powerful lyrics, femininities of the Open Orchestra created a Greek transposition of the song in an effort to stand together and stand up against patriarchy and the violence it reproduces. The song became part of a wider call by the Open Orchestra for a big music performance for International Women’s Day 2022 where the Open Orchestra, along with the Open Feminist Assembly, Mov, Oistrogones, the 8th March Assembly, Meliries, the Network of Women Writers against Gender Violence and Femicides “i foni tis” and many others u

Antigone vs Creon

Image
  " Antigone   "   by Sophocles The tragedy of Sophocles   "Antigone"  is to this day one of the most popular works of ancient speech and was used like no other text to denounce the  authoritarianism  of power (Creon) on the one hand and to highlight the value of   disobedience  ( Antigone) against state power.  Antigone's stance was presented and interpreted as a democratic and  revolutionary  act  and became a symbol   of combativeness  . The conflict   between Creon   and   Antigone  refers to the eternal conflict between the two terms of the binomial   Individual - Autocratic state  .  The individual claims the right to  autonomy   and free will against the   power  and institutionalized violence of the State.  It is argued that the tragedy   "Antigone"  includes all the arguments for the law of the   "Morality  " of an act (Antigone - burying the dead) and for the law of a legal act (Creon's Order) but not necessarily moral. (Creon)
