OUR APPROACH
Community Dialogues
We partner with community leaders and local administration officers like chiefs and elders to engage communities in order to encourage
open and free discussion and diverse opinions in the process of communal problem-solving around issues of GBV.
During the conversations, community leaders engaged in meaningful discussions on preventing violence against women and girls through the positive use of power, using flyers, posters, and brochures.
Coaching Boys to Men
Athletic coaches play a vital and unique role in the lives of young men, often acting as parents or mentors. Due to these special relationships, coaches are well-positioned to positively influence how young men think and behave both on and off the field.
This program fosters these connections by supplying high school athletic coaches with the necessary resources to encourage respectful behavior among their players and to help prevent relationship abuse, harassment, and sexual assault.
Amani Soccer club
Through soccer, boys learn important life skills such as leadership, cooperation, and conflict resolution. They develop a sense of camaraderie with their teammates, which fosters empathy and understanding towards others, including women and girls.
Soccer programs help boys recognize the importance of treating everyone with dignity and respect by promoting positive masculinity and challenging harmful stereotypes.
The programs also provide a platform for discussions about gender equality, consent, and healthy relationships. Coaches and mentors can serve as positive role models, guiding boys toward a more inclusive and compassionate worldview. By addressing the root causes of violence and promoting gender-equitable attitudes, soccer becomes a powerful tool for social change.
