Anti-sexism means changing our everyday actions—and the social structures that shape our lives.
At the individual level, we examine our assumptions, challenge sexist comments, respect boundaries, share care work, and support people experiencing discrimination. We ask: How might my words and actions reinforce sexism? What can I do differently?
At the social structural level, we challenge the systems that distribute power, resources, and opportunities unequally. This means addressing unequal pay, barriers to leadership, the undervaluing of care work, and unequal access to safety, housing, and economic security. It means changing workplace policies, public services, laws, and cultural expectations.
These levels are connected. Speaking up about discrimination matters. So does creating reporting systems that protect people from retaliation. Sharing care work at home matters. So do accessible childcare and equitable parental leave.
Sexism also intersects with racism, colonialism, class inequality, ableism, homophobia, and transphobia. Our responses must reflect those different experiences.
At GECO, we work toward change in our daily lives, our organizations, and our society.
WE STAND is our commitment. Anti-sexist action is how we carry it forward.
