Caritas Sierra Leone Freetown, with funding from the UNPBF and in partnership with CRS, organized a two-day awareness raising session on April 11th and 12th, 2024.
The session took place at the Western Area Rural District Council Hall in Waterloo and aimed to educate 200 participants from various project groups.
The objectives included informing participants about laws protecting women’s rights, available support services for abused or violated women, promoting gender equality and empowerment, encouraging reporting of violence against women, and creating a supportive environment for accessing resources.
L.A.W.Y.E.R.S. facilitated the sessions, with co-facilitation from the Ministry of Gender and Children’s Affairs, using their manual.
