Awareness Creation & Prevention of Harmful Traditional
Practices
The harmful traditional
practices prevention project is focusing on the Southern
region.
The project is aiming
to build up awareness of the harmful effects of
traditional practices such as Female Genital Mutilation
(FGM), and thereby to achieve behavioral change. This
is done by conducting awareness creation workshops, and
training trainers from different communities and faiths
to work on the prevention and eradication of these
practices. Change Agents visit families and help them
to decide not to follow harmful traditional practices.
The project has already
seen signs of new patterns of behaviour emerging, with
girls organizing in groups to support each other in
their decision not to follow the traditional practice,
and some young couples marrying without the women
undergoing any kind of FGM. |
Future Plans
-Start up small
enterprise for circumcisers
-Campaign on harmful
traditional practices
-Training for local
leaders and change agents on harmful traditional
practices
