GAD stands for Gender and Development, which refers to the development perspective and process that is participatory and empowering, sustainable, free from violence, respectful of human rights, supportive of self-determination and actualization of human potentials. This aims to achieve gender equality. This GAD made us realized that women can also do what men can do and women can do something for development, not just a recipients of development. GAD is not just concerned with women, but with the way in which a society assigns roles and responsibilities to both men and women.
Men and women have their differences. We all have our differences. We should accept that. Don’t define us based on our differences. We should change our mindset and start accepting equality.
VAWC stands for Violence Against Women and Children. VAWC includes physical abuse, sexual abuse, mental abuse, threats, harrassments and more. Well, there’s still a lot in this world are abusing women and children. Abusing them has an impact especially to the children because they are just young. VAWC are made to protect and stop women and children from suffering violence. They don’t deserve what you are doing. Learn to love them. Learn to love their weaknesses.
Let’s try to put ourselves in their place, what do you think? It’s too much right? I can’t imagine how painful it is. So, why not make our world a better and safer place for both children and women?
Whatever their gender is, poor or rich, young or old, you should treat them equally.
