Variety is the spice of life - publication

This publication is the outcome of the project ‘Variety is spice of life’ which was implemented by Youth for Exchange and Understanding and funded by European Youth Foundation of the Council of Europe. This publication is for youth workers, trainers, and facilitators dealing with gender issues.

This guidebook is a tool for youth workers, youth organizations, and facilitators who are dealing with gender issues in their work with young people. There are three main chapter: Birth, Adulthood, and the 3rd Age. Each chapter consists of information related to gender issues of that life stage and a series of activities for youth organizations to use when working on gender as a subject. There are also a set of recommendations, ideas, suggestions and tips on working with this subject and the activities for workshops and training courses, etc. The guidebook contains a lot of different terms related to gender that may or may not be familiar. For this reason, we have included a glossary at the beginning of this manual. The glossary will help to understand

the terms and follow the recommendations provided in the manual. The publication is divided into three main sections, each section representing a stage of life: Birth, Adulthood, and the Third Age. Each of these sections in broken down into five sub-topics. The information for these sub-topics came from the research and knowledge of the participants and teams of facilitators and trainers working with them.
