Session objectives
- 1Recognise that gender norms are socially created and can therefore be changed.
- 2Identify specific, practical possibilities for change at four levels: Self, Family, Community, and Panchayat.
- 3Reflect on their own role in promoting gender equality — not as outsiders to the system but as people inside it.
- 4Understand how institutions shape gender attitudes — and how a Panchayat can become a driver of change.
- 5Leave with one concrete commitment to act at each level — or at the level that feels most honest for them.
