Teens, Young Adults and Gender
This training will address issues related to gender currently faced by today’s teens and young adults. We will take an in depth look at gender and how it affects young men and women in the world of sports, politics, and sexuality, as well as the effects of the media on social interaction and the concept of gender-marketing.
As this training is based on the documentary, On The Fast Track Part III-Teens, Young Adults and Gender, participants will view parts of the film where we interview a group of young adults as well as leading experts in the fields of psychology and gender studies which will then be followed by interactive group discussion and exercise.
Continental breakfast is included with this training.
