What We Do

Raising Voices creates evidence-based violence prevention programs based in the everyday realities of schools and communities and supports others to use those methodologies. We rigorously learn what does and doesn’t work to keep women and children safe and then build on these insights to influence violence prevention efforts around the world.

Our Approach

Everyonehas a right to live free of violence.

Preventing Violence Against Children

Because of Raising Voices, I am now an activist. I won't ever go back to just doing projects. I work on preventing violence because I deeply believe in it; it is an expression of my values and how I want to be in the world.
