The Primary goal of this Activity was to advocate for gender equality. The key message gleaned from this GBV activity was that , if a boy can play football, a girl too should be allowed to play. If a boy can take part in commercial activities such as bike riding which is commonly practiced in Muyuka, a girl doing it should not be a taboo.

The Children were schooled on the fact that both men and women can engage in culinary activities, which doesn’t necessarily reduce the respect a man commands in the home and that men and women have the ability to do whatever they could if they desire to do it.
