The Prevention Collaborative is offering "Transforming Gender Norms for Violence Prevention: The What, Why, and How."

Recently, development actors’ interest and investment in programs to shift norms have surged. Both donors and programmers are realizing the importance of understanding and addressing social norms as part of a comprehensive approach to prevent and reduce violence. This self-paced course will help you to demystify what social norms are and how to address them in programs to prevent violence against women and children (VAW/C).

This course is designed for program managers and technical leads who develop or implement violence prevention programs. It’s also useful for donors and multilateral organizations who design terms of reference for these types of programs.

The course is online, self-paced, and free. For more information and to apply, see the website.
