| Gender-based violence is an important issue in the Cambodian context that has been neglected considerably, but remains a major problem for development and human rights. Gender Café, a project initiated by Gender and Development for Cambodia in 2011, aims at addressing the issue of gender-based violence by empowering women through information and story sharing. In 2013, four specific groups of women—women entertainers, street vendors, factory workers and victims of land eviction—have been identified to become Gender Café members because of their vulnerable status in Cambodian society. With activities, such as gender café events, monitoring and coaching, camping, publication of cases and radio shows, Gender Café intends to support and inspire its members to exercise their rights to become free from gender-based violence. The project has been successful in combating such violence and promoting women’s empowerment. | |
