Smashing Stereotypes will change your world.

Stereotypes are widely held, fixed and oversimplified images or ideas of particular types of people or things. In short, we want to obliterate stereotypes. We want to do this for everyone but especially for YOU - the young people who are our future.

If you are interested in smashing stereotypes, from birth, at school, at college - then you are in the right place.

wHAT DOES Smashing stereotypes mean to us?

What does #SmashingStereotypes mean to the GEC? It means no more telling you what you can or can’t do just because what what you look like, how you talk or what people think ‘people like you’ can do. It means no more barriers stopping you from doing what you want or being who or what you want.

We want #SmashingStereotypes to be a site entirely by young people for young people. We want YOU to tell us how we should be #SmashingStereotypes by showing us:

Who is SmashingStereotypes that you like? How are you SmashingStereotypes? Why should everyone get SmashingStereotypes? Then we will show them. Deal?

Or, if you want to take it up a level, and be part of the GEC - apply for our new GEC Shadow Advisory Board!

Cannot wait to learn from you,

Nic Ponsford, Founder of the Global Equality Collective (GEC))
