"One in three women will experience an act of violence in their lifetime,
whether it is domestic and interpersonal violence; sexual violence;
violence in the name of “culture” or tradition; or systemic violence, as
in the use of rape as an instrument of war. For decades, women’s rights
advocates have been in the forefront in the fight against this violence
by working to support survivors of violence; to develop policy, criminal,
and justice responses; and in a broader struggle for gender equality.
Relatively recently, efforts have focused on engaging men as part of the
solution. As the disproportionate perpetrators of this violence, and as
benefactors of a patriarchal society, men and masculinities must be
understood in terms of the cause and as part of the solution."
plz give a thought in the issue above.It is one of our important
agenda.If possible we may make some discussion on it in the forthcoming
meeting.
