HE can SHE can: Gender equality for children

By Susanna Mazzola

"He can she can" is a 62-page children's book with a positive powerful message: it is never too early to discuss gender equality and inclusion with children. Let's tell children "they can" do what they love to do, without stereotypes and social expectations based on their gender or skin colour. The book is composed of two chapters: "SHE can" and "HE can", you can decide which one you want to read first, then flip the book over and continue reading discovering a different gender prospective.SHE CAN is a visual open letter about women's empowerment and self-worth, addressed to girls and young women all over the world. The main focus of this chapter is to facilitate conversations with children around gender-based biases and stereotyping, by using images that portray inclusive and powerful ways of being a girl/woman.If you have a good look at the illustrations, you could spot some of the historical references to strong female figures (from Frida Kahlo, Mexican painter, to Valentina Tereshkova, the first woman in space).HE CAN is a visual open letter as well, and it is mainly about men's self-worth and emotional health. This chapter is addressed to boys and young men all over the world and aims to facilitate conversations with children around gender-based biases and stereotyping, by using images that portray inclusive and positive ways of being a man/boy. This time you might be able to spot some of the strong references to contemporary social movements and music history (from Kurt Cobain to Jimy Hendrix)
