Living within a patriarchal world

Sunday 19th of october at: Molli at van Ostadestraat 55 hs

In this first workshop menSEN asks everyone to reflect on their past and present within a patriarchal world. We will start off with exercises that deal with perpetual violence on an individual level and systemic scale. We will end with a facilitated conversation on how we can transform ourselves and our society away from patriarchal violence.

What is accountability and how to betray patriarchy?

Sunday 26th of october at: Vrankrijk, Spuistraat 216

This workshop will be focused on how we can take accountability for our actions. What it means to hold each other accountable and how we can stay committed to change. The workshop will be facilitated by MAP[Cph], who has met weekly for the last five years to focus on accountability, critical reflection, and interference in patriarchal masculinity.

Forming an anti-patriarchal men*’s group

Saturday 1st of november at: Molli at van Ostadestraat 55 hs

The aim of this workshop is to multiply our struggles – to support each other in growing the reach and impact of feminist and anti-patriarchal organizing. Whether you’re looking to start something new or strengthen existing efforts. The workshop builds on the two previous workshops, but it is not necessary to have attended those to participate.

We use men* to include all unique experiences of people who might identify as man or masculine.
