Social resistance indispensable to resist violence against women

BSS, Rajshahi :
Ensuring women rights has become crucial to establish equity-based society through ending violence and repression against them.

Wide-ranging social awareness among the community people, especially parents and teachers, is very important for prevention of child marriage and dowry for substantial and sustainable reduction of violence against women.

Government officials, development activists and other stakeholders made the observation while addressing a district-level dialogue in Chapainawabganj on Thursday.

DASCOH Foundation organised the dialogue titled “Prevention of sexual harassment, child marriage and violence and repression against women” at Civil Surgeon Office supported by NETZ Bangladesh.
