Sambhav/Zero tolerance Project financial or technical supported by US Aid ,Unicef ,Restless Development implementation Ratauli yuwa club in Mahottari District’s 50 school and also communities base . Schools do not exist in social isolation from their communities. Gender inequalities, violence in the home, and social norms are often reflected in incidents related to gender-based violence at school. This initiative intends to clarify social expectations and practice to reduce negative behaviors in schools. According to a survey conducted by UNICEF in 2014, 66% of school-going children in Nepal have experienced physical violence while 22% have experienced psychological violence by teachers. Similarly, the percentage of children experiencing physical and psychological violence by peers at school is 28% and 15% respectively. The same survey found that 12% of children have been victims of sexual violence at school. Education has the potential to transform and empower young people, particularly girls. In 2015, the Government of Nepal launched the academic year with the slogan “End Gender-Based Violence at School” and has been active in raising awareness about this issue. Under the leadership of the Ministry of Education, USAID and UNICEF are partnering to support the government in these efforts over the next three years.
Objective
- Girls and Boys, particularly from marginalized communities, are supported to transition into and remain in schools, improve their learning and become empowered members of their communities.
- Schools are safe spaces free of all forms of gender based violence, where boys and girls are able to equitably learn complete primary and secondary education and become empowered members of their communities.
