Youth Alliance for Safe and Healthy homes Suriname

Location: Suriname

After a few days of schools being closed and people working from home, we received a few videos where people were concerned about increased child abuse and domestic violence. A group consisting of 4 youth members all heavily involved in Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights and Anti-violence movements and 2 members who have a great track record working on gender based violence, SRHR and Child abuse decided to create an organization called "Youth Alliance for Safe and Healthy homes Suriname" to raise awareness and stand against violence.

Support

Currently, we want to create flyers in all languages spoken in our country and distribute them via supermarkets in high risk neighbourhoods, also create videos, tv programs and radio ads. We are a week old organisation, so we are still working on the budget.

Other needs: Access to information
