Haiti - Social : Call for applications, LabCitoyen 2019 Program
30/11/2018 10:22:31

As part of the 16 days of activism against violence against women, the Embassy of France in Haiti wishes to highlight the commitment of Haitian youth against discrimination against women through the program LabCitoyen.

The LabCitoyen, organized by the French Institute of Paris, offers a stay in France to about fifty young Francophones from all over the world, aged between 20 and 26 years old and engaged in a citizen approach, around the main themes of human rights through a series of lectures, debates, round tables and workshops.

The 2019 edition of LabCitoyen will focus on the theme "Women's Rights: Equality and Citizenship" and will take place from June 30 to July 7, 2019 in Paris.

While women's struggle for the full recognition of their rights is increasingly echoed on the political, legislative and media agenda, equality between women and men remains a difficult goal to achieve both in the public sphere than private. LabCitoyen 2019 envisages addressing inequality, discrimination and violence against women from the perspective of access to full citizenship, the conditions of which require the debate over the relations of power and domination that structure our societies.

Theme discussed in the program :

Women, political participation and citizenship;
Professional equality;
Access to education and knowledge;
Fight against harassment and violence;
Religions and women's rights.

Terms of participation :

A Selection Committee associating the French Embassy, the French Institute and expert partners in the theme will select the participants.
