Break Barriers: Yasmin Bibi Girls College

Dear supporters!

An awareness session on Violence Against Women was successfully conducted at Yasmin Bibi Girls College as part of our ongoing efforts to promote student safety, awareness, and empowerment. The session was attended by more than 100 female students from different academic programs. The objective of the session was to raise awareness about different forms of violence against women, their social and psychological impacts, and the importance of speaking up and seeking support. The Principal of the college addressed the students and stressed the importance of a safe learning environment, personal safety, self-respect, and mutual respect within society. She emphasized that educational institutions must serve as safe spaces where young women can learn, grow, and express themselves without fear. Students were encouraged to recognize unacceptable behaviors, understand their basic rights, and seek help from trusted sources when needed. The session also highlighted the role of education in challenging harmful social norms and promoting gender equality. The event concluded with an interactive discussion, during which students shared their thoughts and asked questions, reflecting strong engagement and interest in the topic. Such awareness activities are regularly organized at Yasmin Bibi Girls College to support the holistic development of students and to foster a culture of safety, confidence, and awareness among young women.
