School-related gender-based violence remains an obstacle to girls’ education. Efforts to address school safety are needed at all levels, including teacher training, community intervention and ministerial policy and practice. Ministries of Education can send a clear message that gender- based school violence will not be tolerated by firmly and quickly prosecuting perpetra- tors. Teacher training should include strong messages about professional and ethical conduct. The use of outside experts, such as police, social welfare and non-govern- mental organizations, can clarify what constitutes abuse and suggest ways to stop it. Schools should initiate student representation and participation in order to have their voices heard. Teachers should listen to both girls and boys and engage them in. | STRENGTHENING HEALTH AND FAMILY LIFE EDUCATION IN THE REGION The Implementation Monitoring and Evaluation of HFLE in Four CARICOM Countries unite for children unicef UNICEF BECO 2006 McClẽan-Trotmđn Published by the United Nations Children s Fund Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean Office First Floor UN House Marine Gardens Christ Church Barbados.
