Yet some have less experience working to engage men and boys in GBV prevention, especially through unpacking and transforming harmful gender norms that lead to violence. To address this gap, Equimundo developed an online course for activists to learn how to use gender-transformative approaches (activities or interventions that seek to change harmful and\/or stereotypical gender roles and promote gender equality) and strategies to include men and boys in their community-based work. The course was tailored to this particular group of people, but an adaptation is underway that will be publicly available. The online learning course, called <em>Together for the Prevention of GBV,<\/em>\u00a0includes three units:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Unit 1: Gender, Masculinities and Gender-Based Violence<\/li>\n<li>Unit 2: Promotion Strategies and Experiences for Engaging Men in GBV Prevention<\/li>\n<li>Unit 3: Approaches, Considerations, and Methodologies for the Transformation of Patriarchal Masculinities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The course was designed specifically for Spanish-speaking activists in the Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) region, and includes examples of effective gender-transformative programs and methodologies in GBV prevention in LAC. The course ends with a final task of creating an action plan to carry out an activity to engage men and boys in GBV prevention in activists\u2019 current work.<\/p>\n<p>We interviewed several activists after completing the course, to ask what they learned and how they will apply this knowledge in their lives and their work. Below are some statements from participants on the impact of the course:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI learned about gender-transformative approaches, to involve people in such a way that they participate and have a direct voice in the campaigns, so that they are not just recipients but managers of the information we bring to them\u2026 At the moment we are developing a training program with LGBT youth\u2026 We are working in focus groups with leaders, so that they are not incorporated on the fly, but from the very beginning\u2026 We have been developing workshops for several years, in capacity building for LGBT leaders, and in the specific case of trans people there has always been a claim that their voices are not sufficiently heard. \u2026During the course\u2026it was significant to have the opportunity to learn about other projects in Latin America [and the Caribbean], their way of working, their methodologies, especially Unit 3, which helped us to improve our work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[The most significant impact was] understanding that we need new masculinities and that we have to promote them\u2026there are people who are examples of these masculinities, and we have to show them, especially where I live, where heteronormativity is widespread. We need non-toxic, inclusive masculinities that advocate for real change.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am an activist, and sometimes I lack tools\u2026for programs that work with other people beyond women. Feminism and sisterhood have always been about women to women; I was not aware of the fact that there are programs that work with boys on these issues. I did not have resources of information and knowledge about programs beyond women, for my work and to share with others\u2026With this course, I have been given very precise tools\u2026It has helped me in my communication work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe most significant change has been gaining more knowledge and having more tools at hand. I have been struck by the way studies and programs in other countries are done, always with an intersectional approach\u2026Now I have started to think about how to work in my community\u2026 sharing information from other programs that have been shared with us in the course. I could even create a virtual course.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBefore receiving the training we have worked on gender issues. But\u2026there are terms that are constantly being updated. The [course] has allowed us to refresh several topics and has given us more strategies and tools\u2026to conduct trainings with the LGBTQ+ population. It gave us opportunities to provide tools and techniques to work on violence against trans identities. The references helped us to go deeper\u2026Now as a trainer I feel more empowered. I usually write projects for international organizations related to gender issues. Now I have a better basis for writing better projects\u2026[and I] have more tools to manage community impact projects.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Gender-transformative programming can improve the quality and outcomes of work in violence prevention by encouraging working directly with men and boys to promote healthy and positive masculinities and with intersectional approaches. By addressing more of the root causes, activists and practitioners can be equipped with the tools needed to change gender norms and promote nonviolence.<\/p>\n<div class=\"swiper-container gallery-slider\">\n                <div class=\"swiper-wrapper\"><div class=\"swiper-slide\" data-iteration=\"01\" data-caption=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live-pro011.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Unit-1-Infographic-1-e1706543732736.jpg\" alt=\"Unit 1 Infographic\"><\/div><div class=\"swiper-slide\" data-iteration=\"02\" data-caption=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live-pro011.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Unit-2-Infographic-e1706543757257.jpg\" alt=\"Unit 2 Infographic\"><\/div><div class=\"swiper-slide\" data-iteration=\"03\" data-caption=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live-pro011.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Unit-3-Infographic-e1706543744412.jpg\" alt=\"Unit 3 Infographic\"><\/div><\/div>\n        <div class=\"slide-captions caption\"><\/div>\n            <div class=\"swiper-pagination\">\n                <div class=\"swiper-button-prev\"> <\/div>\n                <div>\n                    <span class=\"slide-iteration\"><\/span> \/ 3\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"swiper-button-next\"> <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"notion-enable-hover\" data-token-index=\"0\">C\u00f3mo nos asociamos con activistas para implicar a los hombres en la prevenci\u00f3n de la violencia<\/span><!-- notionvc: 2ef89b79-2b4a-47a7-89ed-58d81ff472fb --><\/h3>\n<p>Muchas activistas de derechos humanos y derechos LGBTQIA+ que trabajan para prevenir la violencia de g\u00e9nero (VBG) tienen experiencia trabajando con mujeres y ni\u00f1as y apoyando y defendiendo a las supervivientes de violencia. Sin embargo, algunas activistas tienen menos experiencia trabajando para involucrar a hombres y ni\u00f1os en la prevenci\u00f3n de la VBG, especialmente a trav\u00e9s del an\u00e1lisis y la transformaci\u00f3n de las normas de g\u00e9nero perjudiciales que conducen a la violencia. Para abordar esta brecha, Equimundo ha creado un curso de aprendizaje en l\u00ednea para que los y las activistas aprendan a utilizar enfoques y estrategias de transformaci\u00f3n de g\u00e9nero para incluir a hombres y ni\u00f1os en su trabajo comunitario. El curso se adapt\u00f3 a este grupo espec\u00edfico de personas, pero est\u00e1 en marcha una adaptaci\u00f3n que se har\u00e1 a disposici\u00f3n del p\u00fablico. El curso, llamado &#8220;Juntos para la prevenci\u00f3n de la violencia basada en g\u00e9nero&#8221;, incluye tres unidades:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Unidad 1: G\u00e9nero, masculinidades y violencia de g\u00e9nero<\/li>\n<li>Unidad 2: Estrategias y experiencias de promoci\u00f3n para involucrar a los hombres en la prevenci\u00f3n de la VBG<\/li>\n<li>Unidad 3: Enfoques, consideraciones y metodolog\u00edas para la transformaci\u00f3n de las masculinidades patriarcales<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>El curso fue dise\u00f1ado espec\u00edficamente para activistas de la regi\u00f3n de Am\u00e9rica Latina y el Caribe hispanohablante, e incluye ejemplos de programas y metodolog\u00edas eficaces de transformaci\u00f3n de g\u00e9nero en la prevenci\u00f3n de la VBG en la regi\u00f3n. El curso termina con una tarea final de crear un plan de acci\u00f3n para llevar a cabo una actividad que involucre a hombres y ni\u00f1os en la prevenci\u00f3n de la VBG en el trabajo actual de los activistas.<\/p>\n<p>Entrevistamos a varios y varias activistas tras finalizar el curso, para preguntarles qu\u00e9 hab\u00edan aprendido y c\u00f3mo aplicar\u00edan estos conocimientos en sus vidas y en su trabajo. A continuaci\u00f3n figuran algunas declaraciones de participantes sobre el impacto del curso:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cEl cambio mas significativo es \u2026 conocer los enfoques transformadores de g\u00e9nero, en involucrar a las personas de manera que sean part\u00edcipes y tengan voz directa en las campa\u00f1as, de forma que no sean solo receptores y que sean gestores de la informaci\u00f3n que les llevamos\u2026 En este momento estamos desarrollando un programa de capacitaci\u00f3n con j\u00f3venes LGBT\u2026Estamos trabajando en grupos focales con l\u00edderes, de manera que no se incorporen sobre la marcha, sino que se incorporen desde el momento inicial\u2026 Nosotros llevamos varios a\u00f1os desarrollando talleres, en formaci\u00f3n de capacidades en l\u00edderes LGTB, y en el caso espec\u00edfico de las personas trans siempre ha habido un reclamo de que su voz no es lo suficientemente escuchada\u2026Durante la capacitaci\u00f3n\u2026fue m\u00e1s significativo tener la oportunidad de conocer otros proyectos en latinoam\u00e9rica [y el Caribe], su forma de trabajar, sus metodolog\u00edas, sobre todo el m\u00f3dulo 3, esto nos sirvi\u00f3 para mejorar nuestro trabajo.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[El cambio m\u00e1s importante fue] comprender que necesitamos nuevas masculinidades y que hay que impulsarlas, hay que descubrirlas, hay personas que son ejemplo de esas masculinidades, hay que mostrarlas, sobre todo en donde vivo, donde la heteronormatividad es difundida. Necesitamos masculinidades no t\u00f3xicas, inclusivas, que abogan por el cambio real.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYo soy activista, y a veces me faltaban herramientas \u2026 sobre programas m\u00e1s all\u00e1 de las mujeres. Siempre el feminismo y sororidad ha estado de mujeres hacia mujeres, no conoc\u00eda el hecho de que haya programas que trabajen con chicos sobre estos temas. No ten\u00eda recursos de informaci\u00f3n y conocimientos sobre programas m\u00e1s all\u00e1 de mujeres, para mi trabajo y compartir con otros\u2026 Con el curso, me han dado las herramientas muy precisas\u2026 me ha ayudado en mi trabajo de comunicaci\u00f3n.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEl cambio m\u00e1s relevante ha sido ganar m\u00e1s conocimiento y tener a la mano m\u00e1s herramientas. Me ha llamado la atenci\u00f3n, la forma como se hacen los estudios y programas de otros pa\u00edses, siempre con un enfoque interseccional\u2026 Ahora me he puesto a pensar c\u00f3mo trabajar con quienes viven aqu\u00ed en la comunidad\u2026 compartirle informaci\u00f3n de los programas que nos han compartido en el curso. Puedo, hasta, hacer un curso virtual.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNosotros antes de recibir la capacitaci\u00f3n hemos trabajado tem\u00e1ticas de g\u00e9nero. Pero\u2026 hay t\u00e9rminos que se actualizan permanentemente. La capacitaci\u00f3n ha permitido que se puedan refrescar varios temas y nos haya dado m\u00e1s insumos para aplicar\u2026herramientas para realizar capacitaciones con poblaci\u00f3n LGBTIQ. Nos dio oportunidades para brindar herramientas y t\u00e9cnicas para trabajar sobre la violencia a identidades trans. Las referencias nos ayudaron para poder profundizar\u2026Ahora como formador me siento m\u00e1s empoderado. Yo suelo redactar proyectos para la cooperaci\u00f3n internacional, entre ellas, relacionadas a tem\u00e1ticas de g\u00e9nero. Ahora tengo m\u00e1s base para redactar mejores proyectos\u2026[y] tambi\u00e9n mayores herramientas para dirigir proyectos de impacto comunitario.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>La programaci\u00f3n transformadora del g\u00e9nero puede mejorar la calidad y los resultados de la labor de prevenci\u00f3n de la violencia, fomentando el trabajo directo con hombres y ni\u00f1os para promover masculinidades sanas y positivas y con enfoques interseccionales. Al abordar en mayor medida las causas profundas, los activistas y profesionales pueden dotarse de las herramientas necesarias para cambiar las normas de g\u00e9nero y promover la no violencia.<\/p>\n<p><!-- notionvc: 2029603f-77dd-4f0f-9c98-df17eeb3c321 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- notionvc: 6462a41c-5ac5-4a63-974c-6771bb243436 --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>De nombreux militants des droits humains et des droits LGBTQIA+ qui \u0153uvrent \u00e0 la pr\u00e9vention de la violence bas\u00e9e sur le genre (VBG) ont de l&#039;exp\u00e9rience aupr\u00e8s des femmes et des filles et ont soutenu et d\u00e9fendu leurs droits.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":57,"featured_media":16873,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[267,189,205,1393,427,744,1022,1367,1392,645],"class_list":["post-16861","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-caribbean","tag-gbv","tag-ipv","tag-lac-region","tag-latin-america","tag-latin-america-and-the-caribbean","tag-lgbtq","tag-lgbtqia","tag-prevention-of-violence","tag-violence-against-women","program_areas-social-connection","geography-central-america-and-the-caribbean"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/live-pro011.pantheonsite.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16861","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/live-pro011.pantheonsite.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/live-pro011.pantheonsite.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/live-pro011.pantheonsite.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/57"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/live-pro011.pantheonsite.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16861"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/live-pro011.pantheonsite.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16861\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16881,"href":"https:\/\/live-pro011.pantheonsite.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16861\/revisions\/16881"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/live-pro011.pantheonsite.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16873"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/live-pro011.pantheonsite.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16861"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/live-pro011.pantheonsite.io\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16861"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
