HAMNASA is an implementing partner under the Nabilan Program, a long-term Ending Violence Against Women and Children (EVAWC) Program, funded by the Australian Government and implemented by The Asia Foundation. The gender-transformative Positive Parenting Program aims to address the intersection of violence against women and violence against children. There are 18 three-hour sessions for couples on topics such as: gender and power; fatherhood, maternal and child health; caregiving; healthy relationships; joint management of household resources; preventing violence and resolving conflict.
- Main impact: All three communities have shown positive changes from pre to post-test from both men and women in gender attitudes, menโs attitudes on sexual violence, attitudes and behavior on violence against women and violence against children.
- Follow-up data showed that men were highly interested in the session topics and women have noticed an increase in menโs involvement in household tasks and more discussions on how to manage and spend money.
