MARTI – MAke it Relevant: Tools for Intersectionality

The project MARTI continues its path and cross the one of Intersezionale, a young and new experience of information that is placed in the cultural and political battle favoring the interconnection and mutual influence of transfemminism, of environmentalism, anti-racism, anti-capitalism and many other issues.
 

A few days ago was published on their channels the interview of Carmen Ferrara (activist in Antinoo Arcigay Naples and researcher associated with Genpol - Gender & Policy Insights.

Carmen interviewed our president Annamaria Simeone, Federica Milano and Mary Shaheen, all involved in the Marti project together with their related associations. (Euroaccion Murcia, New Generation Palestine as well as Yes – Youth Exchange Service that forms the entire project partnership). In this interview they talk about how the project was born and how it is necessary to apply an intersectional approach within Youthwork, especially in a context rich in nuances such as the Euro-Mediterranean area.

The partnership with New Generation Palestine is certainly important, as Carmen writes: "without the perspective of the Palestinian people who today live a dramatic and intersectional form of oppression caused by Israeli occupation, colonialism and aparthaid". In fact, looking at the Palestinian context using the lenses of intersectionality makes more evident the inequalities and injustices that the Palestinian people suffer in so many aspects of their identity.

Thanks again to Carmen and Intersezionale for this article and for the commitment they put every day in defending and promoting the rights of all.

Fartun,
non solo visione ma anche riflessione…
| Ilaria Zomer 
Centro Studi Sereno Regis

Normally the vision of the documentary Fartun is accompanied by a long discussion with the audience during which we deepen the history of the documentary itself and propose a critical reflection on its contents. Because of the current situation, it is not possible to organize a public event, (we broadcast it Saturday, March 21 from 8 am and until midnight streaming on youtube and facebook) we thought to share with you articles, contents and videos to deepen the reflection and leave you some questions. If you like you can leave your thoughts in the comments to the article and while watching the documentary. It will be a pleasure to read them and feel all a little closer.

Domani streaming dalle 8 alle 24 – 

On Going Events

Doc | Free streaming of "Fartun" for the project "countHERnarrative"

Saturday, March 21 | 08.00 AM – 23.00

Since 1966, 21 March is the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, when the UN General Assembly after the murder of 69 people during the Sharpeville peaceful demonstration in South Africa.

On 21 March 2020, from 8.00 am until midnight, through its own channels Giosef Torino and Centro Studi sereno Regis, will bring to your homes the mini-documentary "Fartun", produced as part of the project "countHERnarrative" and realized by’ArabWomenMediaCenter, association of #Amman that deals with the professional growth of women in the media sector.

The documentary is a window to look to migration from another point of view, the women one. Migrant women, strong women with a story to tell, without filters or preconceptions. Specifically, the project follow two objectives of sustainable development (SDG 5: Achieving gender equality and emancipating all women and girls and SDG 10: Reducing economic inequalities within and outside national borders).

Since more than 40 years associations, governments and individuals have celebrated this date in the most diverse ways, but this year will obviously be different. The health emergency created by the spread of COVID-19 in Italy and in various parts of Europe and the World, does not allow the realization of a public celebration on 21 March.

#istayathome, but that doesn’t mean we can’t find a way to remember the anti-racist message that he’s been carrying for 44 years on March 21.

Follow Fartun on our channels and celebrate together the day of 21 March, a way to be together in a difficult period for our country, but which perhaps makes us more aware of the difficulties and limitations that other peoples have had to face in history.

This project was produced with the financial contribution of the European Union and the Piedmont Region, through the Consortium of Piedmontese NGOs within Frame, Voice, Report!.
