ADDRESSING GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE THROUGH GIRLS SPORTS -
VIDEO
Gender-based
violence is a major public health and human rights problem throughout the
world. This type of violence often happens behind closed doors. A girl needs a
safe space to discuss experiences, violations and fears, and receive validation
that her fears are okay. Furthermore, a girl needs to understand her legal
rights. A team and trusted coaches can provide that environment.
We are currently producing a collaboratively authored interactive guideline
that will promote best practices and also serve to connect activists doing the
work on the ground. Information on The International Guide to Designing Sport
