SCHOOL-RELATED GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT

The LARA SRGBV Formative Assessment conducted in November and December of 2015 highlighted the need for school personnel, pupils, and community members to understand how a positive and supportive school can serve to reduce VACiS. Recommendations from the Formative Assessment emphasized the need for a training program that would support the teachers, pupil groups, and community members to address issues of gender norms, imbalance in power relations, child protection policies, and most importantly to work together to create a positive and supportive school climate that is free from violence.
