The purpose of this project has been to promote a gender-sensitive attitude among the staff of kindergartens and among the children’s parents, as well as to reduce gender stereotyping in the communication and interaction with children. The project also strived to create equal opportunities for girls and boys to develop their skills and interests without being constrained by gender-stereotypical expectations.
During the conference, the partners presented their own work in their respective local kindergartens and shared experiences and lessons learned. 61 visitors participated in the conference and represented, among others, The Ministry of Social Security and Labour, Women’s Issues Information Center, students from Lithuanian University of
Educational Sciences and the Lithuanian Parliament. On the conference was also representation from an umbrella organisation for children’s rights in Lithuania, NGO Confederation for Children, and staff from eight local kindergartens.
