FormatFactory1
In workshops held in Kutaisi, Tskhaltubo and Senaki, young people fix their positions regarding women's rights. Most of them believe that informing about their own right should take place at an early age, as the violence begins with the violation of their rights.
During the discussions, the participants gave real-world examples and analyzed how much they know about their rights, is a compromise solution to the problem and whether they can effectively manage conflict situations.
- Violence against women in our country is one of the most serious problems, caused by the shortage of information. We will continue discussion on this subject, as the girls must know their rights. This will greatly help us to avoid conflict situations, in order not to be in the role of the victim, - said one of the participants.
