Gender and Identity
I dette forløb har vi arbejdet med temaet køn og identitet, med særligt fokus på, hvordan kønsroller formes, udfordres og opleves i forskellige kontekster og medier. Vi har brugt en række forskellige materialetyper – dokumentarer, artikler, podcasts, kampagnevideoer og skønlitteratur – for at få et nuanceret billede af emnet.
Holdet har lavet en skriftlig aflevering i forbindelse med forløbet, og materialerne hertil er derfor opgivet nedenfor.
