Understanding Masculinity & Tackling Misogyny

Duration: 2 hours or 4 hours

Location: Online via Zoom (registration links will be sent closer to the time)

Recommended for: Teachers, RSE leads and professionals working with young people

Overview of session:

In response to increasing concerns about the dangerous impact of online misogyny on students, Brook has developed this training session to support teachers to understand and tackle harmful misogynistic narratives in the classroom.

This training prepares professionals to understand gender related pressures among young people, to know the nature and scale of online misogyny, and to identify and mitigate the push-pull factors that attract young people towards extreme online ideologies. This training includes practical RSE tips and activities to increase professionals’ confidence in raising an awareness and tackling misogyny in the classroom.

Learning Outcomes:

By the end of the session, you will be able to:

• Describe the harmful impacts of gender stereotypes on young people’s wellbeing, relationships and opportunities.
• Define misogyny and provide examples of how it affects young people of all genders.
• Understand the widespread impact of online misogyny, and recognise the tactics used to attract and engage young followers.
• Know effective RSE approaches and activities to raise awareness and challenge misogynistic beliefs in the classroom.
• Feel confident in helping young people critically engage with online content promoting misogyny and harmful ideologies.
