Gender - a transverse theme

Fairness between the sexes is an important reference point in all the projects supported by Fastenopfer. The aid agency therefore analyses the effects on the women and men involved. Gender justice requires a language that clearly names women. That is why they receive intensive training and support in women's organisations. By contrast, men often have to learn to pay greater respect to women's rights, and not to take out their problems through violence against women and children.
