Global Ties Detroit will be partnering with the International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP) and FHI 360 to host a delegation of law officials to improve understanding about how social developments, economic opportunities, education, entrepreneurship, political participation, and leadership, can serve as tools for combating violence. During their stay this delegation will be examining education and outreach initiatives which focus on women’s legal rights, the responsibility of men and boys to avoid perpetuating gender-based violence, and combating trafficking in persons. They also will be discussing techniques to identify forms of gender-based abuse, report abuse, prosecute abusers, and provide assistance and techniques to protect victims of gender-based violence.
