Welcome to the Day 1 training program on Gender-Based Violence (GBV). Today, we will be discussing the basics of GBV, including its definition, causes, and forms.
1. Definition of GBV: Gender-Based Violence refers to any harmful act that is perpetrated against an individual based on their gender. It encompasses physical, sexual, emotional, and psychological abuse, as well as economic deprivation.
2. Causes of GBV: GBV is a result of deeply ingrained societal norms and attitudes that perpetuate gender inequality. Factors such as patriarchal beliefs, power dynamics, and cultural practices can contribute to the prevalence of GBV.
3. Forms of GBV: There are several forms of GBV, including intimate partner violence, sexual violence, child marriage, female genital mutilation, and human trafficking. These forms can occur in various settings, including the home, workplace, and community.
As we continue with our training program, we will delve deeper into these topics and explore ways to prevent and respond to GBV effectively. Thank you for your participation, and let's work together to combat Gender-Based Violence.
