The Alive! How to Counter Femicide Starting from School

Résumé

The training of teachers and students is essential in combating femicide, a sadly widespread phenomenon deeply rooted in gender inequality and violence against women. Teaching gender equality and raising awareness of human rights from the early stages of education can shift mindsets and prevent violent behavior. For teachers, proper training allows them to recognize signs of abuse and intervene promptly, while also fostering an inclusive and respectful school environment. For students, targeted educational programs focused on participatory activities, which may include open discussions, interactive workshops, and expert testimonies, can help create a culture of non-violence and respect.
