In the state university of Meskhia, on the initiative of Khurcha youth center, the debate on: “Violence towards the women – prevention mechanisms” was conducted.

The issue of violence was actual for the students. While discussion it was seen that the analysis of the reasons cause differences in opinions. One part considers that the main “guilty” is Georgian traditions, the other part thinks that the problem of violence against women exists also in those countries, where the mentality is weaker.

By general opinion, there are several reasons and this problem should become prior for the state.

The participants of the debates mentioned that consciousness of a person is created in early age and prevention of violence should be started by education of the youth – it is an important step.

The project is implemented with the support of Kvinna till Kvinna,
