What we do
Through numerous events and projects, various problems are identified, including negative attitudes towards girls and women, neglect of girls, educational deficits, a male-dominated society and unsafe working conditions. These problems lead to gender inequality and endanger the lives and rights of girls and women.
The direct beneficiaries of the project are women's self-help groups, the female population in general, young women (especially those who have recently married or will soon marry), families with only girls, as well as youth and tribal groups with cultural and religious links.
The main objective of the project is to change the awareness and behaviour of the population. Various activities are carried out to achieve this goal, such as awareness raising, training, sensitisation of service providers and villagers, family counselling, workshops and events.
