According to the UNESCO education-sector report "Ending school violence" (2019), some learners experience physical fights with their peers. Children who experience violence are also more likely to be vulnerable to gender-based violence at school and at home, because they fail to learn where to draw boundaries early on.
It is for this reason that Re A Bua Foundation today donated copies of Different but Equal, authored by our Founder and CEO Ms. Kemmy Mpinang, at Bophirima Primary School in Gaborone. The book raises awareness on the early prevention of GBV among school-going children.
It aims to help children understand important values: kindness, respect, boundary-setting, equality, and the harmful effects of bullying. The initiative nurtures safer and more compassionate students from an early age.
