THE FIRST OPEN CLASSROOM IN THE MUSEUM OF LITERATURE AND PERFORMING ARTS B&H

On the occasion of 16 Days of Activism campaign, TPO Foundation, beside its programmes of empowering and promotion of gender equality, will direct this year’s activities to education of young people in B&H. Three open classrooms were planned in cooperation with the Museum of Literature and Performing Arts B&H where young people will have an opportunity to talk about invisible and forgotten female writers and reasons why there are no texts of B&H female writers in school curricula. The aim of open classrooms is to affirm young people for female creative endeavour that contributed to B&H cultural and literature development.
