gender and power

dismantle patriarchy.

We see systemic abuse and discrimination toward women and children in the name of patriarchy everywhere. DAYLIGHT has worked in the United States and internationally to address ongoing gender-based violence (GBV) and child sexual abuse. Despite decades of intervention globally, rates of domestic violence, sexual abuse, and child sexual abuse remain high (and stable) in the developed and developing countries.  DAYLIGHT embraces a transformative justice approach, which looks at engaging and building community-based approaches to justice.  

DAYLIGHT's work starts with respect for local values, using them focus on building change with reference to local priorities and community norms. DAYLIGHT's work in this area also includes promoting women's access and equality.  Contact us.
