Based on the two complementary briefs, our speakers in this webinar, will highlight different types of awareness raising approaches and what they can achieve, as well as the limitations of this approach. We will also outline key steps to apply a behavioural approach for violence prevention. Finally, UN Women Bangladesh will share their experiences of applying this step-by-step process to develop a behaviour change communications strategy. This will be followed by a Q&A with the audience, and discussions around how to equip more effective awareness raising and behaviour change efforts to prevent VAWG. Prevention Collaborative is a global network working to equip ourselves and others to end violence against women and their children. Follow us to find out more!
