In the second half of August, information meetings were held in the Youth Clubs of Senaki, Ozurgeti, Kutaisi and Lanchkhuti. There was discussion of the topic: "Prevention of domestic violence, protection mechanisms, the role of society", different opinions, active inclusion of young people.

Opinions of the participants:

"I learned a lot in the club. I did not think that I would have such interest. "

"It's very important for me to hold such free meetings."

"Informal education among young people has positive changes. I am one of the brightest examples of this."

This year the Fund "Sukhumi" began to work with the boys for the first time. This is a cycle of meetings with the same group during six months.

Aim of this project component is to increase the level of knowledge of boys in the topic of violence against women. It is necessary for the adolescents to realize the main thing: men hereditary are not aggressive and they have a special role and responsibility.

The work was carried out in the schools of the municipalities of Kutaisi, Tskaltubo, Khoni, Terjola, Senaki, Poti, Zugdidi, Lanchkhuti and Ozurgeti.

In July, the last, sixth meeting was held with each group. There were final exercises and games, talking about the negative side of public stereotypes, the analogue of the game "What? Where? When?". There was also shown the animation. The boys even managed to play small role games.

During the feedback, participants frankly talked about the effectiveness of the six-month work. They noted that each meeting was interesting and informative for them. The obtained knowledge and experience will be useful to them at every stage of life.

And again: they regret that the project has come to the end. However, they know that now the new groups will pass such an interesting six-month cycle of work.

Informational meetings of the youth clubs on: “Prevention of domestic violence, Protection Mechanisms, the Role of Society” were held in Tskhaltubo, Terjola, Poti, Khoni, Ganmukhuri (Zugdidi Municipality).

Active groups immediately involved in the work. Leaders who discussed the reasons of domestic violence were identified and they talked about the stereotypes that prevent the  measures against violence towards the women.

Young people gave examples from the life of their family and relatives. Very important is the fact that they really perceive the scale of violence and think about prevention.

"It is necessary to talk about these issues not only with us, it is necessary to include parents, teachers, social workers," - this is the opinion of one of the participants of the meeting.

Information meetings of the Youth Clubs took place in the municipalities of Terjola, Poti, Lanchkhuti. The topic of the conversation is violence prevention among young people, the mechanisms of protection and the role of society. Participants actively discussed this topical issue. They talked about the reasons that are often hidden in family, school and society. Like previous months, in July, 9 meetings were held in 9 municipalities.
