Who is afraid of gender?

Analysis of the key narratives and strategies of the anti-gender movement in Republic of North Macedonia

However, the goal is not to expose or mock these organizations but rather to better understand them and gain knowledge towards: human rights promotion for everyone and identifying how to oppose the hegemonic framing strategies, representation and discursive construction of women and sexual and gender minorities proposed by anti-gender movements. It is our hope that the analysis will strengthen the mobilization for gender equality promotion and human rights respect for all individuals in society.
