Understanding Gender
How gender is taught — and how to see it.
From the norms on the wall to the six stages that make a man — and the question of who we are beneath them.
Welcome & Micro Lab
Arriving, connecting and aligning — participants share why they have come, and a large-group movement exercise gently surfaces the themes of the days ahead.
Asli Mard, Asli Aurat
Examining the norms and perceptions our communities hold about what makes a "true man" and a "true woman" — on a wall we build together.
Kya Sach Hai, Kya Soch Hai?
Fact, belief and assumption — and the discovery that sex is biology, but gender is something we were taught.
The Social Construction of Man
If most of what we expect from men and women is not nature but learned — then who taught us? When? And how? A dice game through the life of a man.
Reflection & Consolidation
A quiet close to Day 1 — connecting the day’s learning to one’s own life, and naming the social expectations that have shaped who we are.
