2. EQUALITY IN ACTION
We have gathered once more with the same purpose in Xanthi,
Greece, leaving our mundane lives behind and working towards a
reality that is far from wishful thinking, a world that might soon be
ours, where all genders are empowered to have an open mind
and work together towards an equitable future. We met with the
goal of identifying the issues that lead to gender inequality, and
throughout the course of our seven days together, we were able
to avoid gender stereotypes and dig deeper into what genuinely
distinguishes today's progressive thinkers. Students were
continually shown through historical innovations and current
groundbreakers that they are the future and that they, too, can
live to their best potential.
