Training of Religious and Cultural Leaders on Prevention Against Gender-Based Violence

This training brought together religious and cultural leaders to address critical issues surrounding GBV. The discussions highlighted the urgent need to protect girls and women within the community, with leaders committing to proactive measures against violence.
A unified message emerged: GBV will not be tolerated, and there is a collective responsibility to eliminate it. They emphasized that justice will be served for perpetrators, including those who commit rape, moving away from traditional and cultural values that may have previously shielded offenders. This training marks a significant step toward raising awareness and capacity building a safer environment for all.
