ACTIVITIES

ENGAGE MEN AND BOYS 

Engage men and boys with messages that are tailored to address gender stereotypes and unequal gender roles.

Address violent masculinity linked to alcohol abuse

Promote positive masculinities with positive role modelling and sharing in caregiving

Men and boys also do experience gender-based violence and gender-biased challenges to accessing services. At times, they suffer from certain forms of stigma or false perceptions that ‘real men’ don’t need support.

Ensure that support services are also accessible to men and boys.


EXPLORE TECHNOLOGY-BASED SOLUTIONS

In today's world, we need to take advantage of the opportunities for innovative and safe ways to stay connected.

Smartphone apps, SMS, and online platforms can help to disseminate information, provide services, generate and collect data, and share experiences.

Students, too, can find opportunities to use modern communication tools to create and innovate.

Create a Project or Competition

Secondary school students can be asked to develop apps that can be used to help survivors prepare to safely leave abusive situations. The app can be disguised for people worried about partners checking their phones. It can also log incidents of domestic abuse, without any content being saved on the device itself, building a secure body of evidence so police can intervene and secure a prosecution.
