- Equality means that rights of none of the sexes should not be
infringed.
- Woman’s word must have a value in
the family. If no one considers with her word, it is violence - such views were
expressed at the meeting with the participation of young women.
According to them, it is difficult
to achieve gender equality in Georgia, because stereotypes create serious
barriers. When equality is violated at the expense of others’ rights, it takes
the form of violence. Participants think that such meetings are very important.
Women should be informed at an early age. The more woman is informed about her
rights, equality, the less she runs the risk of becoming a victim of violence.
The meetings were held in
Kutaisi, Senaki, Poti, Koki (Zugdidi district), Tskhaltubo and Khoni. It was
attended by more than 80 girls.
The project is
implemented with the support of the organization EED Evangelischer
Entwicklungsdienst.
