Summary/Abstract: Resilience Handbook: Countering Anti-Gender Policies provides a comprehensive overview of anti-gender movements, their strategies, and the impacts of their actions, while also proposing practical strategies for fostering resilience against their influence. Over the past decades, anti-gender mobilisations have emerged as a serious threat to advancements in human rights, gender equality, and social inclusion. Although primarily targeting women and LGBTIQ+ persons, their activities have broader implications for democratic processes, the rule of law, and social stability. By employing narratives centred on the preservation of ‘traditional values’ and ‘family stability’, these movements justify opposition to reforms that promote equality and inclusivity. Their discourse frequently incorporates elements of populism, nationalism, and clericalism, and they operate through political parties, religious institutions, conservative non-governmental organisations, and right-wing media networks.
