🎀 Sensitization Through Debate | July 2nd, 2025

Topic: Gender Inequality is More Influenced by Culture than Religion

Participants: True Success Academy vs. Right Choice Academy

On July 2nd, our CDS group brought together bright young minds in a powerful and engaging debate on a topic that continues to shape our society, Gender Inequality: Is it more influenced by culture or religion?

The students from True Success Academy and Right Choice Academy went head-to-head, presenting well-researched arguments, challenging perspectives, and offering fresh insight on how we understand gender roles.

πŸŽ‰ At the end of the event, participants were recognized and awarded for their excellence, courage, and intellect.

We believe that raising awareness starts with sparking conversations and what better way than through healthy competition that educates and empowers?

πŸ”™ Flashback to April 7th, 2025 | CDS Sensitization Outreach

On April 7th, 2025, our CDS group took a bold step in addressing two deeply important issues within our host community β€” the dangers of unprotected s*x and gender-based violence (GBV).

During the session, we engaged participants in open discussions on:
πŸ”Ή The risks associated with unprotected s*x, including STIs, unplanned pregnancies, and emotional consequences
πŸ”Ή The importance of making informed, safe, and respectful s*xual health decisions
πŸ”Ή Understanding gender-based violence β€” what it is, how to recognize it, and the steps we can all take to prevent and report it

It was a truly impactful outreach where voices were heard, questions were answered, and awareness was raised. We believe that education is a tool for prevention, and we remain committed to championing these conversations in every corner of our community.

Thank you to everyone who showed up, spoke up, and stood with usπŸ’ͺ ⭐️
