Descripción
Key deliverables will be the 5 interventions designed to learn how women
participation, masculine patronisation and gender diversity are practised at
organisational level in Tijuana:
1. Reverse conference ("Organisational Vulnerability: women organising in
Tijuana"). Associate partners organisations will leave with a draft of an
impact case study on how their respective organisations could reduce the
vulnerability of women.
2. "Women Organising in Tijuana": a short documentary film to be used for
pedagogical purposes.
3. Discussion groups: 5 discussion groups to incentivise discussion and
evaluate interest to reduce the vulnerability of women.
4. Podcasts: 5 online podcasts distributed free online
5. Mobile app (iOS/Android), "TijuanaHelp": developed for the use of
managers to identify best practices to tackle organisational vulnerability of
women. The app will work also as platform to share information among
women and their organisational experiences in Tijuana.
Problemática
The project consists on an action programme to develop capacity within
organisations in the Mexico-US borderland to prevent and reduce
organisational vulnerability of women in Tijuana through the implementation
of three impact factors: 1) encouraging women organisational participation,
2) reducing masculine organisational patronisation and 3) recognising and
celebrating gender organisational diversity.
Objetivo
1. to significantly extend the research impact from previous awarded
projects on women organising in the Mexico-US borderland.
2. to use local organisations as examples of how it is possible to reduce
women's organisational vulnerability through concrete real world contexts.
3. to co-create 5 innovative impact routes to evaluate how organisations
can encourage women organisational participation, reduce masculine
patronisation and recognise and celebrating gender diversity
4. to consolidate British-Mexican capacity to produce future impactful
research on the broader topic of organisational women vulnerabilities in
global borderlands contexts (10+ years)
