With our support, Family Voice has also conducted awareness campaigns targeting hundreds of families on these issues.  In partnership with Family Voice, we have also reached out to more than 10,000 girls and boys educating them on their rights.

In Port Moresby, we worked in partnership with Haus Ruth. With our support, they managed to provide temporary accommodation, counseling and legal advice to thousands of mothers and children victims of domestic violence.
