Appeal

"Gender education" is an action research programme that seeks to develop a scalable model for engaging boys to prevent violence and discrimination against women and girls in India. The programme ensures that just like boys and men’s, women and girls are free from gender-based violence and feel safe from the threat of such violence in the communities where the programme is implemented.
The funds raised will be used in the following key areas:
1. Program Development and Training: To design and implement mentor-led workshops and interactive sessions that help boys critically examine gender norms and power dynamics.
2. Mentor Training and Support: To provide training for mentors who facilitate these sessions, ensuring they create safe, supportive environments for meaningful discussions.
3. Educational Materials: To develop and distribute educational resources that enhance learning and facilitate reflection on gender roles and behaviors.
4. Community Engagement and Advocacy: To support activities where boys take collective actions to promote gender equality and advocate for women’s and girls’ safety in their communities.
5. Follow up to run this program with 125 boys in 5 communities.
