What Creation of
picture postcards and T-shirts about Equal
Opportunities The Swedish
Municipal Worker's Union has realised an initiative aim to
the diffusion over the territory of Equal Opportunities
items. Postcards and T-shirts have been created, with comics
and balloons able to make people immediately reflect on
gender disparity. How
much This initiative can
be performed by the Equal Opportunities Board or by the
Social Affairs Board, after an evaluation of the
availability of resources by the committed Municipal
Administration, or of the existence of community funds for
this kind of initiatives. How - The Trade Union
has contacted a comic-strip writer and given him the task
to create the comics analysing the many aspects of
discrimination with easy contents and images, so that
everybody can understand and remember them. This product
was distributed free to municipal bodies, schools, or in
the occasion of meetings and seminars.
- At first, it
could be a single interested municipality who simply
experiment this kind of advertising. Subsequently it is
possible to create a pool of neighbour municipalities in
order to make this action more effective.
Why The Trade Union has
experimented this initiative in the aim of finding an easy
an direct way of diffusion and sensitisation, using the
advertisement technique, made of images and short slogans.
At the same time, they have chosen to use a funny
characterisation of the gender disparity in the aim to make
easier the approach to these problems. Results
- Co-operation of municipalities
in order to foster Equal Opportunities
- Diffusion of the product over the
territory
- Sensitisation of the community
about the many aspects of gender discrimination.
