• create space for children to challenge social and gender norms that lead to peer violence and to become change makers able to develop sustainable solutions that address violence.
The project will engage eight schools in each four countries (32 schools in total) and train a total of 64 facilitators (16 per country) from the targeted schools based on the tailored curriculum, who will end up training their colleagues in the schools they come from.
