Overview

 General objective

To promote a space of dialogue, provocation and reflection on different performances of masculinities staged in everyday experiences, considering their different effects.

Specific objectives
- Promote a space of conversation about masculinities.
- Produce understandings about the participants' perception of "being a man", "masculinity", etc .;
