What we are doing for prevention:
Holding free open discussion clubs for sharing live stories of survivors and those, who prevented violence. This will help women to learn from the experience of others and prevent being a victim of violence themselves.
Conducting trainings and workshops for educating women to be confident, to increase their self-esteem, identify any attempts of violence correctly and react immediately.
Participating in challenges and programmes of violence against women in cooperation with international organizations, networking at forums and round tables, sharing experience of support provided by different organizations globally. This will help WISEA and its subscribers to be informed on outer problems of violence and solutions.
Making younger generations aware of the challenges women face with violence, making them think about how to prevent it via debates tournaments and essay competitions at universities and schools.
