Fifth Report for GlobalGiving

 

Project Title: Educating Children in Conditions of Rural Vulnerability

 

In recent years there is a recognition that while empowering women and girls is essential to reducing violence against them and building equitable relationships and fulfilling lives, it is also necessary to work with men, adolescents and boys. There is a growing awareness that gender beliefs, social norms, and attitudes affect men as much as women. They affect everyone, although the impacts are not the same for all.

 These norms, beliefs, and attitudes affect the vital needs and aspirations of men and women, impeding their full lives.   Not only that, but they also contribute to violence. Indeed, men and women exercise and experience violence in different ways, but violent acts are overwhelmingly perpetrated by men - whether against women, other men or themselves. Therefore, it is necessary to deepen our understanding of "masculinity" and the factors that affect it, in order to adequately address it and reduce gender-based violence and thus foster equity and equality among all people in addition to promoting the full life or integral development of all men and women.

 

Main achievements:

 

 Despite economic limitations in this quarter a training workshop on Gender Justice was held, 31 people participated, including 15 women and 16 men members of the organizations affiliated to the COMAL Network in the regions of Intibucá, Lempira and La Paz. The workshop provided a space for reflection on the social conditions that motivate the hegemony of men and women, as well as their involvement in the violation of human rights.

 In addition, it encouraged critical reflection and self-learning, creativity and critical thinking in students, and promotes the socialization of knowledge through teamwork.It also focuses on developing positive attitudes towards learning and fostering motivation for the development of new skills, which contributes to cooperative learning and the building of healthy interpersonal relationships, greater equity and gender justice in community organizations.

 

On behalf of the community organizations affiliated to our association, we thank the financial support of all donors who through GlobalGiving make possible these processes of capacity building for producers in the communities of western Honduras.
