Learners were guided on understanding the different forms and consequences of gender-based violence, identifying bullying as a protection and wellbeing concern, and appreciating the importance of empathy, dignity, and positive social norms in their daily interactions. They were also introduced to confidential and child-safe reporting channels to ensure that any protection concern is addressed promptly and appropriately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By working closely with the school community, The Bakhita Initiative continues to promote safe, inclusive, and violence-free learning environments where every learner\u2014especially girls\u2014feels protected, supported, and empowered to speak out against any form of violence, whether offline or online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unite.
