In Kutaisi, Khoni and Tskaltubo workshops with women were held on actual issues: how is gender equality connected with violation against women, is the conflict caused by incorrect allocation of functions in family, what stereotypes form inequality model in our society.
Participants consider that traditional Georgian family discriminates women. Most of women obey to it, but those who try to ruin stereotypes, often become victims of violence.
While discussions with the women there were expressed opinions regarding possibility of creation of gender equality in family. By general point of view, meaning of equality should be equally explained to society and it is necessary to conduct discussions on these issues.
The project is implemented with the support of the organization Brot
für die Welt – Evangelischer Entwicklunsdienst (Germany)
