Welcome to the knowledge base for The Looking Glass โ a gender transformative education toolkit. We have leveraged multimodal pedagogies to explore power and gender to produce resources for formal and informal learning.
Our resources are built on extensive ethnographic case studies of minority and minoritised groups in Pakistan. It uses a decolonial lens to explore violent pasts and our collective and individual practices of remembering and forgetting. Our research has been translated into film, literature, and academic publications. Watch this space for community symposiums, new releases, and collaborations in your region!
Our research has been translated into a 6-episode docuseries, an accompanying learning guide, and a short storybook. Watch this space for upcoming community symposiums and academic publications!
Our 6-episode docuseries explores themes of power, justice, acceptance, and violence through case studies of gender minorities in Pakistan.
Our curricular resource pack helps teachers and learners explore our research with a journey map. We share the way we conceptualise power and gender, reflective activities and questions to help you interact with our docuseries, and A/V case studies.
Our illustrated short stories collection, Moonbow, uses magical realism and world-building to explore themes of power, identity, language, and violence to reach a wider (and younger) audience).
EdJAM Regional Conference | February 12th to February 16th
The Looking Glass was presented at the Education, Justice, and Memory Network regional conference held in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. In collaboration with the Bophana Audiovisual Resource Center, we spoke about teaching the violent past, resistance from within and outside the state apparatus, and how memory is practised across different social spaces. We had the opportunity to meet partners of the EdJAM Network from Cambodia, the UK, Palestine, Jordan, DRC, Netherlands, Uganda, South Africa, and Jamaica.
