<p>BWHD provides an opportunity for men to learn what it is like to live with the knowledge that women and girls have that they may be assulated by someone they know. The training helps men to realise how this shapes women’s reality. BWHD activities build awareness of the need to provide space for girls to expand to their full personhood. Both fathers and daughters get opportunities to practice assertiveness and to challenge aggressive behaviors.<br />
