We provide structured training for young people and survivors to provide them with the skills and knowledge to deliver our programmes, and to mentor younger students. This equips the trainees with both technical and interpersonal skills and practical experience to build confidence, resilience and improved employability.

Situation
Girls are raped, sexually assaulted and sexually harassed at school, put under emotional pressure; and denied the equal rights to learn in a dignified environment. The Girlguiding Girls’ 2021 Survey found that 67% of girls and women between 13-18 years old have experienced sexual harassment at school from another student and almost a quarter have been subjected to unwanted physical touching of a sexual nature. Schools can play an important role by delivering prevention education workshops
Solution
The charity’s aim is to support long term systemic change to end VAWG by addressing gender inequity, a root cause of VAWG. This will be achieved through the Train the Trainer Programme - upskilling & employing young adults to deliver VAWG prevention in schools. An elearning platform will be developed to enhance & improve the quality of trainers and increase number of programmes delivered in schools.
