Strengthening women's capacity to prevent gender-based violence
The project, in partnership with Leading Hands and the Mediterranean Women Foundation, aims to strengthen women's capacity to prevent gender-based violence. It focuses on raising awareness among women about the various forms of gender-based violence, including domestic violence, sexual harassment, and emotional abuse. By enhancing their knowledge and understanding, women can better identify and recognize abusive behaviors. The project includes self-defense training and techniques to improve their physical safety, as well as legal awareness sessions for 20 women and girls to protect them from gender-based violence. Additionally, self-defense courses will empower women, helping to reduce their dependency and vulnerability.
