Women’s Self-Defense & Men’s Violence Prevention
Globally, at least one in three women and girls is beaten or sexually abused in her lifetime; according to statistics, their perpetrators are most likely men. Women are increasingly turning to self defense in response to the risk of being assaulted. Men can also be part of the solution through violence prevention.
Guests: Donna Chait of the Prepare Inc. personal safety program and Ted Bunch of A Call to Men, a national organization engaging men in ending men’s violence against women and the eradication of sexism.
