CSI Engages School Students in Interactive Lesson on Gender Stereotypes

As part of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, Dr Aizharkyn Kozhobekova, Director of UCA’s Civil Society Initiative, conducted an awareness-raising session with students at Bilimkana International High School in Bishkek. The session examined gender stereotypes and their impact on societal roles, opportunities, and attitudes, particularly among youth.

The lesson included interactive games, open discussions, and student-led presentations to explore gender perceptions. Students actively engaged in identifying and challenging stereotypes about girls and boys, demonstrating their understanding through interactive games.
