Introduction:

Gender socialization of both boys and girls begins early, and it is important to initiate change processes at a yuoung age to shape attitudes and transform behaviors. Schools and colleges play a major role in this regard, because students spend large amounts of time engaged with peers in such settings. Creating positive social norms in educational institutions that value girls and their rights is important to improve the well-being of girls and achieve long-term and sustainable social change.

They will strengthen the potential of young girls and boys to advocate for gender equality and monitor progress towards gender justice.

Goals & Objectives:

The aim is to make the. Young boys and girls gender sensitive and create positive social norms that value the girls and their rights.
