- empowering them to incorporate respectful relationships, positive attitudes, and behaviors into their teaching approaches, thereby facilitating the development of healthy relationships, resilience, and confidence among children
- equipping them with an understanding of the pivotal role of gender equality in preventing family violence, alongside practical strategies for integrating gender equality into their teaching practices
- ensuring they can identify and respond effectively to family violence while establishing robust support networks.
