Domestic
violence and their controlled mechanisms- was the topic of workshop with young
people held in Poti Women Support Centre.
-If we give possibility to conflict
development, the result we gain is the violence – that was the general opinion
of workshop participant’s.
-What are the methods of conflict management,
who and how avoid the conflict? - All participants tried to answer those
questions.
Some interesting moments were mentioned
during the discussion: most of girl participant’s believe that family violence
can be avoided if everyone rejects their positions.
The position of men was radically different
(the workshop was attended by two men). They basically blame women in family
conflicts. They say: - conflict between couples develops if women do not obey
and relinguish their opinions.
After discussion the group comes up to one
opinion: more information is needed. The boys should also present on such kind
of workshops to increase their consciousness and not to be based only on
stereotypes.
The
project is implemented with the support of the organization Brot
für die Welt – Evangelischer Entwicklunsdienst
