RE:CLAIM YOUR BODY
Equality Across Gender and Sexuality
Everyone should have equal opportunities, regardless of gender, body, or sexuality. While this is the reality in some parts of the world, many countries are still far behind. In the Re:Claim Your Body workshop, we focus on the right to equal opportunities across gender and sexuality.
Using the work of Indian rapper Krantinaari as astarting point, the workshop explores the injustices she faces as a woman in India, where honor killings, rape, sexual harassment, and gender inequality are part of everyday life. Her lyrics—written in English and Hindi—boldly address the challenges women in India confront daily. Krantinaari has traveled across India, speaking with female rappers who fear coming forward. Through her music, she highlights why voices like hers are crucial. This workshop examines why representation matters and encourages participants to reflect on their own perspectives on gender equality.
Learning Objectives
● Participants understand what gender inequality means in practice
● Participants can provide three examples of gender inequality or discrimination from Denmark and abroad
● Participants can engage in discussions about the consequences of gender inequality and how equality can be achieved
● Participants feel motivated to use their voices to debate gender equality and understand that rap can be a powerful medium for this discussion
As part of the Re:Act project, we have developed three workshop formats designed to educate and engage young people in the 30 UN articles, helping them expand their knowledge, develop opinions, and feel more motivated to act on human rights challenges. We firmly believe that knowledge empowers, and with greater awareness of human rights, young people become better equipped as active citizens. Each workshop is led by two rap coaches, lasts five hours, and includes 3.5 hours of interactive learning.

Workshop participants don’t just learn about human rights—they also reflect on their own beliefs and visions for a just society before expressing their perspectives.
ABOUT RE:ACT
The 30 articles in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights established by the UN are a cornerstone of modern Western society and something we at Rapolitics are deeply committed to highlighting. Unfortunately, awareness of human rights among young people in Denmark is declining. Studies from UNICEF and Danish Institute of Human Rights show that one in five Danish youth is unaware of human rights and that nearly half cannot name a single one.
