The protection team in URDA continues its activities for the 16 days of activism campaign against gender-based violence.
Today, on December 6th, the team presented an awareness session on protection from sexual exploitation and abuse for 15 Syrian and Lebanese young women and girls. Our social worker Amal Abu Hjaili provided beneficiaries with information on the various types of power, as well as concepts of sexual exploitation and abuse and understanding of differences in the balance of power and its relationship to sexual exploitation and abuse and gender-based violence.
The event concluded with a yoga session for the participants considering it has a great positive impact on their physical, mental, social and spiritual health.
