thank your for entering your idea in this challenge. you have an interesting approach to address gender violence through football. are you working with other organizations in Brazil to replicate the model?
As you may know, in this challenge, you can also vote once you have subscribed your idea. I´d like to incentive you to mobilize your network, from now on, to vote in your project.
It's great to be in touch and thanks for your interest in the project. The content of the intervention actually draws from materials that have been developed in collaboration with other organizations in Brazil as well as elsewhere. The curriculum for the discussion groups is adapted from the Program H manual which is co-authored by Promundo, two other Brazilian NGOs (ECOS and PAPAI) and a Mexican NGO (Salud y Genero). The campaign, in turn, will use materials from the Brazilian White Ribbon Campaign (Laco Branco) which is led by a consortium of Brazilian NGOs and inspired by the White Ribbon Campaign which was originally launched in Canada and has since spread to more than 60 countries.
We are currently concentrated on the impact evaluation of the project but after the study is completed (in August/September of this year), we will shift our efforts to dissemination and replication.
Oi Christine, tudo bem? Lembra de mim? JSB. Achei muito interessante a idéia de associar a violência contra mulheres por meio do futebol amador. Parabéns!
Dear Christine, Thank you for sharing your sport based program. I am sure it will be a great success as it harnesses your experience and expertise in working with men and a popular leisure activity.
Since 2007 I have developed a concept called The Solar Cinema as a platform for community development. Over the years, the model has developed to specifically target men, the main patrons of cinema in India. Our research and discussions with peers in India led us to focus on patriarchy and gender in the context of gender equality, violence, and sexual & reproductive health.
Our first project was started in Pune, India in January. To date 30% of audience members enroll in our training.
We are basing our training on Yaari Dosti (itself adapted from Promundo's Prog.H) with two important changes. We are including additional learning objectives on patriarchy and the social structures that continue to reinforce gender inequality, and secondly, we derive learning objectives from programs that target women in the same community. For example, our community cinema in Pune teaches the young men about the low school attendance of girls in the same community, why this is unfair and what can be done about it.
Please keep in touch, I believe we can share information on our experiences to derive effective methods for engaging men to support women.
