Details:
The poorest communities in almost any region tend to be minority communities that have been targets of long-standing discrimination, exclusion and sometimes violence. Women and girls from minority groups experience multiple and intersectional forms of discrimination based on both their minority status and their gender. Minority women frequently experience multiple forms of oppression, and the oppression can vary depending on who she is dealing with (e.g. her minority community, majority community, institutions, etc.). Gender is a social, not a biological concept . Differences in gender roles and behaviors often create inequalities, whereby one gender becomes empowered to the disadvantage of the other. Related to our work with young people, we noted that gender equality still has place for development in order to break down all the taboos with gender issue. Gender violence is the most dullness apparition in practice. This problem needs as soon as to get action for promoting the prevention. For that purpose, it is necessary to connect young people with different background to work together on this issue).
