Debates on the theme "Stereotypes and functional roles in the modern family (in the context of domestic violence) " were held inWomen’s Support Center in Senaki.

The theme was selected from the problematic issues identified during Fund "Sukhumi’s" activity in the region. In the meeting participated teachers of different ages, lawyers, journalists, representatives of the local self-government of Senaki.

After the speeches of facilitators and invited experts there was held an interesting discussion. The following views were expressed at the debates:

- "Any of us can become a victim of stereotypes and domestic violence".

- "Each family member should reasonably address the problem, the stereotypes are formed in society and have an impact on young people".

During the meeting participants mentioned that it is desirable to continue the work on these issues in the form of interviews and surveys and involve young people.

The project is implemented with the support of the organization EED Evangelischer Entwicklungsdienst.
