To the campaign of "16 active days against gender violence" Khoni Women Support Center dedicated mini-project "Women break stereotypes."

According to the project summary, the majority of women of military settlement collective center are passive, do not have information about the gender-based violence. The project included women who did not attend the Women's Support Center events. Women's Championship in Backgammon was organized. This broke one of the stereotypes as sport is considered as a man's job.

The championship was attended by representatives of local government.

In frames of the project there was printed a poster-calendar with photos of football players of the club "Abkhazeti" - the winner of the amateur league - Imereti 2016. Especially impressionable was the slogan of the poster "We condemn the violence!"

All participants of the calendar of the championship were given the calendar, as well as informational leaflets. Everyone agrees that it is necessary to condemn the violence and to do everything to reduce the number of violent facts.

The project is implemented with the support of the organization Brot
