Abstract

Gender Justice and Diversity unit of BRAC had a project on sensitizing young people especially girls and community people about sexual harassment in selected areas in Dhaka city in 2011 so that they might act as an individual and collective changemaker and protect, protest and resist such incidence. This study aimed to look into the changes in knowledge and attitudes of those school girls regarding sexual harassment and the changes in reporting rate about the issue as mentioned. Findings show that most of the girls in the intervention areas had better knowledge and appropriate attitudes about sexual harassment compared to the girls in control area. [BRAC Working paper No. 39].
