Prevention of Violence Against Children (PVAC)
Prevention of Violence against Children and Adolescents Program (PVAC) started in 2015. The Program identified that violence against children and adolescents is experienced at home, in schools and the community. i) In homes, violence against children and adolescents is rooted in limited parenting skills and negative practices like the use of corporal punishment, poor spousal relationships like intimate partner fights, especially in the presence of children, and low household income; ii) in schools, violence is rooted in poor school environments that limit children to stay, transit and complete their education like sexual harassment by teachers, and bullying among others while iii) in the community, there are limited safe spaces for out of school adolescents to share experiences and learn from each other and the girls experience sexual violence and exploitation. This has been worsened by the breakdown in the community structures and the persistent norms and values.
