The project seeks to improve the safety of girls, boys and youths at school and enable them to develop in an inclusive, violence-free school environment that is conducive to learning. The goal is to build the capacity of teachers’ unions in their efforts to stop school-related gender-based violence (SRGBV). This involves testing, replicating and generalizing innovative approaches that create ongoing teacher engagement to combat SRGBV. Activities include the following: (1) conducting learning workshops, participative knowledge-sharing sessions, and coaching and mentoring activities; and (2) organizing conferences, symposiums and media activities. The beneficiaries of this project are union members in countries of focus, as well as girls, boys and youths in the school environment.
