Sexual Harassment Prevention in Institutions of Higher Education.
Women Unlimited Eswatini is committed to advancing the rights of women and youth and empowering them for greater participation in social, economic, and political spheres. In collaboration with the Bantwana Initiative Eswatini, a local non-profit organisation dedicated to enhancing the well-being of children and youth in Eswatini, they will implement the What Works funded project centred around fostering engagement, agency, participation, and advocacy to combat the socio-cultural barriers that disenfranchise the voices, participation, and inclusion of women and girls.
The What Works funded intervention aims to address sexual harassment and violence within Eswatini's Higher Education Institutions. It seeks to achieve a quantifiable reduction in VAWG by targeting the underlying gender-related norms that drive campus sexual harassment. Women Unlimited Eswatini and Bantwana Initiative will work together to strengthen systems of support and referral systems, as well as testing innovative approaches including peer-led clubs, campus-wide campaigns, mobile apps, and student networks to promote gender-transformative activism. It also aims to enhance students' agency and activism while enhancing social support for behavioural change.
