#COSTActions #antigenderpolitics
The action plan aims to serve as a social engineering project that regulates a gender regime based on essentialist and religious perceptions of attributed sex, to restore patriarchy and re-design the society based on firm categories of gender dichotomy
It aggressively reimposes traditional gender roles in a rigid and conservative manner, while systematically attacking LGBTIQ+ rights under the pretext of fighting ‘global degenderization projects’.
Branded as ‘Strengthening the Family,’ this policy orientation reflects a global trend wherein states increasingly rely on women’s underpaid and unpaid labor to sustain both economies and patriarchal social orders.
