Male Childrens Gender Awareness May Help Reduce Domestic Violence Rates.
Dr. Josephine Effah-Chukwuma says creating gender awareness among male children can help reduce domestic violence, highlighting a potential solution to the pervasive issue. Implementing such programs could lead to a decrease in abusive behavior towards women and girls worldwide.
According to Dr. Josephine Effah-Chukwuma, chairman of the Innocent Chukwuemeka Chukwuma Empowerment Foundation, creating gender awareness among male children is a key strategy for reducing domestic violence. This approach aims to shape young men's perceptions and behaviors around masculinity, encouraging them to adopt more equitable and respectful attitudes towards women. By promoting this shift in male perspectives, Effah-Chukwuma hopes that future generations of men will be less likely to perpetuate domestic violence. Implementing such initiatives could have a significant impact on preventing the cycle of abuse.
