Concept of the series “Jad & Joury”

The organization presents gender learning content in the form of different stories. The stories will be narrated by two different characters representing the group of 4–18-year-old males and females. Although the series’ direct target group is from 4 to 15 years old, we assume that “JAD” as a role model might impact the older age group. Therefore, the organization selected a 7-year-old girl to raise topics, ask questions and seek answers in a humorous and intelligent way. Meanwhile, a 15-year-old boy will discuss the raised topic in a simplified manner. This is to correct gender misconceptions and highlight useful information that helps correct those concepts.

Moodiness

Gender-typed stereotypes are preconceived, usually generalized to reinforce gender norms, typically in a binary way (masculine vs. feminine). Gender-typed stereotypes can be used by societies to justify discrimination against individuals who do not conform to the gender roles.
