MR MAN RESPECT OUR WOMEN

Image
In recent times i have seen on news papers and on television, women been insulted and called names by public and political officials, In my observation that educated men and even public figures still don't value the efforts of women in our societies regardless of their educational achievements, business success and many more. One could say that disrespecting women used to happen back in the days, sorry to disappoint you but as of this moment well educated men still stand in public, insult women, attacking their gender and some how i would say jealous and suspicious about their success. There have attempts to scare, isolate, or control women, these I classify as also abuse. They affect their physical and emotional well-being. Violence strikes women from all kinds of backgrounds and of all ages. It can happen at work, on the street, or at home. Sometimes, women are attacked by strangers, but most often they are hurt by people who are close to them, such as a husband, partner at w...

NORSAAC Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) with Ghana Education Service (GES)

Image
Sex education has been a shy away topic for many Africans , dating back to the good old days, some considered sex education an abomination hence restricting children and some adult from talking about sex in public or to young adolescence children. Parents absolutely should talk to their children about their feelings about sex, the same way they should talk to their children about other big decisions in their lives. The student learning the biology of sex does not take away from the ever-important role of the parent. Unfortunately,in this 21 century, there are too many misconceptions about what a sexual education class actually does. These misunderstandings have led to parents and conservative school boards to restrict what teachers are allowed to tell students in class, leaving students unprepared to be responsible about their sexual activity. The Northern Sector Action on Awareness Center (NORSAAC) was founded in 2002 as a gender focused community-based advocacy or...

SOME MUSLIM WOMEN MAKING A DIFFERENCE '' Seeking Knowledge is Mandatory for Every Muslim ''

Image
Women and girls have been victims of ruthless power struggles for centuries in all societies and cultures around the world. Sadly, but truly, many societies including some Muslim societies continue to exercise this patriarchy in different forms such as the denial to education, unequal salaries compared to men in workplaces, forced marriages and prostitution, among many others. Prophet Muhammad , peace be upon him (pbuh), came at a time when the Arab society, like so many patriarchal  societies at that time, was rife with abhorrent practices against girls. He preached Islam, liberating women and girls in every walk of life, education being a prime aspect. Let us start with the first Quranic revelation:   Read in the name of your Lord who created, created man from a clinging form. Read! Your Lord is the Most Generous, who taught by means of the pen; taught man what he did not know. (96:1-5) These verses address humankind to seek knowledge and delve...
