This project aims to combat gender-based violence and address the deep gaps in equality between women and men through a comprehensive and integrated approach focused on empowering women and enhancing their active participation in public and community life. The project stems from a firm belief that lack of community awareness of the pivotal role women can play in various fields is one of the most significant obstacles to achieving social justice and sustainable development. Accordingly, the project includes a series of awareness-raising and training activities targeting women and girls, as well as youth and men, with the aim of spreading a culture of respect for equal rights and breaking stereotypes and preconceived notions about gender roles. The project also works to enhance women's economic independence through vocational training workshops, entrepreneurship courses, and linking beneficiaries to job market opportunities or microfinance. Additionally, the project provides psychological, social, and legal support services to women and girls who are survivors of violence, with a focus on building an integrated referral system that connects relevant institutions to ensure an effective and dignified response. This project as a whole seeks to bring about real change in the social and cultural structures that restrict women, and to contribute to creating a safe, just, and equitable environment that enables all, women and men, to participate in building stronger and more inclusive societies.
