Gender-based violence and discrimination against women and girls is widespread in India and exacerbated due to the effects of the COVID-19. In order to move towards greater gender equality, it's not enough just to work with women. Male attitudes also need to change so that men start to understand how greater gender equality might benefit them too. At the same time, it is necessary to help women and girls to build their skills and confidence so they can challenge discrimination and violence.
Challenge
Gender-based violence and discrimination against women and girls is widespread in India and has been exasperated by the effects of the COVID-19. In order to move towards greater gender equality it's not enough just to work with women. Male attitudes also need to change so that men start to understand how greater gender equality might benefit them too. At the same time, it is necessary to help women and girls to build their skills and confidence so they can challenge discrimination and violence.
Long-Term Impact
This project works equally with boys and their fathers, as well as girls and their mothers to challenge traditional gender attitudes. There is a particular focus on school age children, whose attitudes will do most to shape future gender norms.
