Canada is supporting youth-led action to end gender-based violence in Jamaica.
🇨🇦🤝🇯🇲
Through the Canada-funded WE-Talk for the Reduction of Gender-Based Violence project, WMW Jamaica, in partnership with the Jamaica Youth Advocacy Network - JYAN, brought together approximately 100 young people, ages 16–24, for a youth-centred forum on GBV accountability and advocacy.
Participants strengthened their knowledge, confidence and advocacy skills and contributed to a Youth GBV Call to Action, placing youth voices at the centre of efforts to prevent and respond to gender-based violence.
Canada is proud to support young people as they lead change and help build safer, more inclusive communities.
