SPEAK OUT

This toolbox is one of the outcomes of the European project SPEAK OUT - Together for a safer circus (2023-2024), aimed at preventing all forms of sexism and gender-based discrimination and violence in the circus arts sector.

This project was led by FEDEC in partnership with JUMP! Equality at work and co-funded by the European Commission's CERV programme (DG Justice).

Any suggestions are welcome! 👉 communication@fedec.eu
