#ACTFEM

#ACTFEM is a scenic-technological project of social activism.

It’s a technological scenic pilot project of social activism with an academic impact that accompanies continuity in the post-compulsory education system. Promoted by Plàudite Teatre, in alliance with other agents.

According to the 2022 Active Population Survey (EPA), school dropout rates in Catalonia exceed 17% and especially affect young women who, in situations of intersectionality, are forced to abandon their studies.

THE TEAM:

• Stage director: Eugenia Delgado Mata (Plàudite Teatre)
• Stage mentor: Rosabel Huguet
• Stage tutor: Marina Rodríguez Llorente
• Stage coach: Tania Nezzar (Plàudite Teatre)

This project is part of a research supported by the Women’s Institute of Spain in collaboration with the Open University of Catalonia (UOC) (Milagros Sáinz Ibáñez, GenTIC). The research project seeks to develop a teaching guide with educational resources intended to help secondary school teachers and students reflect on the ethical impact of Artificial Intelligence in various areas of life. In addition, the aim is to combat gender bias and other prejudices present in the use of digital tools and applications that are powered by AI. #ACTFEM Tool kit

“Where do the memories go?
Why you left?
Have you seen how he/she/it looked at you?
And what? If I shut up, it will hurt less?
Will he/she/it realize the love he/she/it captures?
Can the sea take away my memories like it takes away the words from the sand?
It is a new beginning, an opportunity to start from scratch, I am tired of borders; We still have to pack the kitchen things…”
Past, present and future. Ten people confront their identities, challenges, commitments, promises of love, memories. Together they meditate on who they were and who they are to invent who they will be.”

Show within the 20th Festival of Performing Arts of Santa Eulàlia
