Chief's are regardcd os thc most inrportant pcoplc in a society. Theretbrc,
they are significant
and are treated with great respect and honour as follows:

Installation of a chief
Installation of a chief refers to the process of appointing a person to assurne the position
of
chieftainship. This is done i, a specialised h-aditional a.cl ritual seremony. Installation
of
chicfs can bc done in different ways in various cnlturcs.

Ndebele culture
When aNdebele chief is installecl, he sits on the thtone during his installation and is given
a .leopard skin to wear as a symbol of power and high ofiice. The chiets wear the
leopard
skin on their waist whitst the kings wear it over rheir shoulder.s. A spear is also handed
over to him as a symbol of power. The chief is covered with medicirral fat throughout
his
body in a process called ukugcotshwa to irnpart dignity, adrniration and respect. Chiefs
arc
installed from the royal farnily. This means the chief's brother or any of the chief's solls
can
assutne chrellainship aftcr a chief has died. The end of thc installation process is rnarked
with
presetttation of gifts to the new chief such as cattle, chicken, goats and
sheep by his people.

Shona culture
The shc'na chief.s are believcd to be choscn fi'orn the royal f'anrily by the spirit mediums.
The ceremonial ritual of installing a chief is done with all village heads an4 heaclmen
present. The new chief is rnade to carry the corpse of his prcdece ssor
down a slope to
where he is to lower it into the cave for burial. This process is done to rnake the new
chief courageous' After this process, tlre new chicf sits in front of the people during
the
installation cerelnony where he is given chiefly ernblems. The emblems include a ritual
dress (r'oyalty of the chief). a spear (symbol of pr-rwer) and a handf'ul of soil to indicate
that he is the custodian of the land. After the installation ceremony, peoplc prcsent gif
ts
to their tlew chief as a sigtt of loyalty. A traclitional party can be organised to celebrate.

Burial of chief.s
The death of a chief is highly considered as a great loss to the cornmunity. When a chief
dies. the llews is not imrnediately communicated. This is because there are cultural practices
and procedur:es that should be followed. It is also done to prevent people from fighiing over
the position as well as avoiding panic within the people. The news ii also prevented from
reaching the enemies in order to avoid the society from being invaded without a chief. Chiefs
are buried secretly in a cave known in Shona as Ninga. Only the choseu village elders atteld
the burial' In prc-colonial Zimbabwe, the elders would go to a far way place for so,re days
to dry the chief's body before burial in a bid to preserve it. This was done by cutting open
the chief's stomach and rernoving the intestinus. After d.yirg the body (mummificatioi),:rt is
wrapped with cattle hide ready for burial in a secret cave. After the secret burial, the people
would be informed of the chief's death and funeral procession will be done as if the chief has
died on that day. A fake burial is done and a sacred holiday known in Shona as mahakurinnt,e
where people are not allowed to worlc is pronounced to mark the mourning of tfre chief. The
chief's speal'is then handed over to the next new chief.

Storage facilities
storage refers to the safe keeping and preseruation
of goods until they are distributed to the
goods even in crisis times. There is a variety of
consumers. storing food secures the supply of
storage facilities 6r different productsiuch as
silos, warehouses, tanks and dams'

Silo
wheat.and millet are stored
silos are structufes for storing bulk grain such as naize,sorghum,
grain is stored from farmers across
in sitos. The GMB has many iilo' u.rors Zimbabwe where
the country. The grain is wltt looked after therefore
it lasts longer without being affected' In
case of natural disasters such droughts, the
govemment takes the grain from the reserves to
f'eed the nation.

Tanks
Tanks are nrainly used to store fuel such as petrolcum, paraffin, gas
and diesel and other liquid
products. The National Oil Company of Zimbabwe stores fuel
at various clspots across the
countty such as the Mabvuku depot in Harare. Water can also be stored in
tanks. Fuel is stored
in undergroturd tanks at service stations.

Fig 7.3 Thnh storage units

Dams
Dams are storage facilities and also sources of water. The process
of collecting water d*ring
the rainy season for storage in the dams is called water harvesting. Water that is
used in
towns and cities is purnped frotn dattrs. Darns oan store large anrounts of
water depencling on
their various sizes. Some of the clarns in Zimbabwe include Tokwe Mukosi, Kariba,
Chiviro,
Mutirikwi, Darwindale, Umzingwane, Ozbclne and Mazowe.

Canning
This is preserving food by storing it in cans or bottles. When
the food is placed in the
containers, it is heated in order to kill bacteria. A't,acuum seal
or covering is ttren placed
at which prevents anything else from entering the container.
In caming, substances called
presentatives are added to help the food last longer. Food
that can be canned include meat.

Travel maps are documents that contain detailecl information about places from
routes,
landforms and other various sites. They show major roacls and railway
lines that connect cities
ans well as all the roads in a town, city or any location. In addition,
tr-avel maps also show the
location of building. Maps are interpreted with the aicl of a specialised key that
is found on
the document. In addition, maps also have a compass that show the direction
ancl a scale for
measuring actual distances. Travel maps can be accessed from inforrnation
centres, suveyor
general's oflice and some fuel service stations.
Distance chart diagranrs are important diagrams that show actual distances
between cities and
town. Bclow is an example of a distance chart showing distances in kilometres;

10.2 Pollution: Causes, Eflects and Soluti,ns

OBJECTIYES
Learners should be able to:
. define pollution
. explain the causes and efl'ects of pollution
. suggest rnitigatory measures to control pollution

Pollution
Pollution is thc introd.uction of hannfirl substances to thc environment.
It can be classified into
three groups r.vhich are water, land and air.

'l'vpcs anrl causr.s ol' pollul iorr

Water
This is the coutamination of'water boclies such as rivers, Iakes.
oceans and other water sources.
Industrial wastc is one of thc nrajor causes of water poilution. Raw
sewage {inds its way int.
streams and rivers in towus and cities thereby polluting the
water. Munyale River, Mukuvisi
Rivor and Lakc Chivero are sorne of thc watcr bodls that have
b.r, g."atly pollurecl by
sewage and industrial waste' In mining areas, rnercury used to
trap gold .id, up in rivers and
dams' This nretal has serious cft'ects on people's healih when
the water is consumecl. In urban
al'eas, tltele sot'ue vehicles tirat spiil oil which is later
washed into rivers by r:un-off water.
Pesticides and herbicides also pollute the water.
Land
It is the deposition of solid or liquid waste rnaterials on land. Land pollutants inolucle
nlunicipal waste, construction waste and dernolition waste or debris as
well as animal excreta.
Dumping of waste from householtls in areas that are not tlumping sites
also causes lancl
pollution.

Air
This is the emissiou of dangerous gases into the atmosphere. Such pollutants
are emitterl
into the air by hutnan activities fi'otn tnanufacturing industries and transpodation.
Tlre rnajor
gases that pollute the air include tritrogen oxidc, uart:on
dioxide, sulphu, oxide as well as
volatile organic ctlnrpounds. Air pollution is very high in industrial
areas.

The Indigenous religion provides many ways in which people

Kukumbira/ ukucela umlilo (asking for a woman's hand in marriage)

In this type of marriage, the tlan's family approaches to the woman's
proceedirrgs begin with the
hand in marriage whiist the woman is in agieement. The marriage

Ku tizira/ukubalekela (elopement)
This is when a womall goes td stay with the man before payment of the
bnde price. The
elopement can be facilitated by pregnanoy or a mutual agreement
between the two. It is
customaly for the woman to be escorted by the aunt to the man's family
where she lvill
hand over her niecc. Hr:wcveq in clther oases the woman can
elope without the consent of
her family. This will require the rnan to pay the woman's farnily a reasonable
amount of
money (not fixed) called tsvakirai kuno. Such a payment notifies
the woman,s family of their
daughter's elopment as well as the man taking responsibility.
Kuzvarira/ukuzalelwa (Child pledging)
This typc of nrarriage is when a tamily agrees or prtrrniscs to providc
a briclc ro another family.
In such a case, the girl grows up being protectetl as she erwaits to be married
to the family she
was pronlised to until she reaches a mafure agc. The wolnan is not given
a choice or say in
the arraugemetrt. Sr-rch rvpe of a man'iage is motivated by various
.Ju*o.r, that would befall
a family which include hunger or cotnmitment of crimes towards
another fbmily. Therefore,
child pledgirrg would be regarded as the paynrent. This rype of marriage now
is di.scourageci
as it violates ltutnan rights of both the girl and thc lnan to whorn
shc is to be married to.
Musengabere (abduction of a woman)
Tlris is the act of taking an Llrunarried wonran to be a wife by force
whilst s5e is unaware and
without her approval. This type of rnaniage involves grabbing. canying and running
with the
unrnarried wolran to the lran's homestead frorrr any strategic place (usually
on her way to or
tiom tbtching water or lirewood). rf the man is successtul. the womun *oul,l be accepied

will then start

as an
unlawful act that violates the rights of the woman.

Kuganhal ukugana
This is a type of marriage that gives the r.r,oman decicling powers. It involves
a wo*an eloping
to a tnan of her choice without his approval after shc would have failed
to entice hinr to ,"r..V
her. Elders in the society or the matl's family play the role of elcouraging
the ma, to accept
thc wonran as failurc to acccpt thc wouran is oonsiclerecl an insult to th;
ancestors. Such a
marriage is no longer accepted by the law ancl society because it violates
the rights of men.
Chimu tsamapliwa/ chimeta masisi
This is a type of maniage that involves replacernent of a wife by the deceased
wife's family. .
In such a case, the in-laws would chosc a rightful candidate fi'om their family to rcplace
rhcir
deceased relatives in the man'iage. This is done to maiutain relations
betweeu the two families
especially when the in-laws are wealthy. Some people are still practising
this type of rnaniage
but it is not as comtrron as it was long ago.

mau-riage
between close relatives and people of the same totern is not allowed. Therc are many rnarriagc
practices in Indigenous religion. The common one is when couples clate privately

Death and burial


Tl.re rites and
rituals performed when one dies are irnportant in Ind.igenous religion. Soon after
the dcath of a person, thc body is covured in cloth and placerl on a platfr:rm by thc fricnd
of
the deceased. A large blanket is hung vertically to cover the plattbrm where the
dead body is
placed' Mouming then begins and people from the community attend the funeral. Continuous
mourning is not allowed because there is a belief that it can interfere with the spirit of the
deceased fiom going where it is supposed to go.
Durirlg the funeral, mounters sing traditional songs and play drums throughout the light
in a bid to console the bereaved farnily as well as bidding farewell to the deceased. In the
early lrours of the day of burial, relatives choose a burial site for their deceased and people
begin to dig the grave in preparation of the burial process. It is the duty of thc sons-in-law
(vakuwasha or abakweuyana) to slaughter beasts that will provide
meals iuring the fu,eral as
the daughtcrs-in-law (varoora or omaluk azana\ do thc cooking.
Before burial, the relatives bath and dress the corpse and the body is carried
around the
house. This ritual is done to allow the deceased to bid farewell to his. or
her home' Some
ethnic groups remove a deceased from the house through a hole on the wall
with the belief
of prev-enting him or her from remembering the way back to the living, as the hole
in the
wall is immediately closed. When the burial process begins, the body is placed on the bier
(a movable fralre in which a coffin or a corpse is placed before burial or cremation
or on
by
which they are carried to the grave) or in a coffir by the rituat friend who can be assisted

Mo*rning continues at the grave site as the burial process continues. Relatives are given a
chance to throw some lumpi of soil into the grave before it is fllled in a
bid to allow them
to accept that their relative has passed on. After the burial process, people disperse to their
homes whilst close relatives remain behind.

Key teachings in Islatm
Llnitlueness ol Allah
Muslims believe that there is only one God they refer to as Allah. They believe that Allah
created everything in six days. Muslims believe that Allah is powerful, infinite and undefined
physically.They view him as the one and only one, who is unlirnited and knows everything.
Allah is considered the first, the last, gracious, great, self-conscious and nothing can be
matched to him.

,\ngels
The Islam religion believes that angels are real and are referred to as Malaikah.Malaikah are
regarded as pure and cannot sin. They are obedient creatures who worship Allah and carry out
his cornmands at all times. Muslirns believe that Malaikah were created before human beings.
They believe that Muhammad received his first revelation from the angel Gabriel. Angels
are fundamentalto Islam and the Quran mentions names of some angels such as Gabriel and
Michael. There is a belief that Muhammad met several angels during his journey to heaven.
Angels communicate revelation from Allah and records every person's actions.

Pnlplrcts
Muslims believe that prophets are humans that were chosen by Allah in the past to convey His
lnessage, warnings, glad tidings and teachings. Prophets were instructed by Allah to bring His
will to the people of the nations. However, eveu though they believe in prophets, the Muslims
acknowledge that prophets are human beings and are not divine even though they were able
to perform miracles. The Quran speaks of prophets such as Abraham, Moses, David and Jesus
Christ. According to the Muslims, the prophet Muhamrnad was the last messenger of Allah to
the whole world.

liar ol'judgcrrrtrrt
Yawn'ad-Din is the day of judgement according to the Islamic religion. On the day of
judgement, they believe thatAllah will decide on how people will spend their life after death.
This judgement will be determined by the choices made in life as Allah gives everyoue the
right to choose their destiny. Muslims believe that people are responsible fbr their deeds. On
the day ofjudgement, the Muslims believe thatAllah will resurrect the dead from their graves
and give thern booklets about their life. The booklets will be read in the presence of other
people. The good people will go to heaven whilst the bad are sent to hell.

Rites amd rituals


In [slamic religion any changes in life are marked by rites of passage and rituals such as
circumcision and burial.

Burial
In Islam Religion, as soon as one dies, the body is washed three times by relatives of the same
gender. This is done based on the belief that no one was born with anything and hence when
one dies, they should go without anything. After being cleaned, the body is wrapped in a white
cloth. It is then taken to an outdoor location which bears a rlosque. Prayers are then offered for

;'ll3 i
,]
the deceased to be forgiven and that they may find peace and happiness irr the after-life world
to come. Burial is usually carried ont in twenty tbur hours after death. The body is buried with
three mounds of soil on the head, the chin and the shoulder with the head lacing towards their
holy city of Mecca. Muslims are not buried in coffins but directly into the ground.

Circumcision
In Islam, circumcision is known as Tohara,meaning purification or cleanliness. Circurncision
is a highly recommended rite of passage in Islam religion. The religion has no flxed age
fbr circurncision. The age at which it is perfonned varies depending on farnily, region and
country. The preferred age is often seven although sorne Muslims are circumcised as early
as the seventlt day after birth and as late as pubcrty. Thc wisdonr of pcrfonrring circurncision
is highlightecl in the Quran which states that circumcision is a symbol of Islam that shows
obedience to thc law of the Lord. According to Muslinrs, tho prophet Abrahanr was the first
persorl to perform circumcision.

Marriage in lslam
Marriage in Islam should be between male and lemale who are not closely related to each
other. Muslim parents lnay an'ange a suitable marriage parlner fbr their child. Marriage
celebrations lor Muslims are traditionally perlormed at the bride's home. The ceremony is
led by a respected membcr of the Muslim community. The bride and groom accept present
fiom each other. The groom has to declare a Mahr (a dowry), showing his respect for the
bride which can include anything she has asked for such as nloney, clothes or even a house.
Some Muslim couples take vows. They sign a marriage contract about what they expect from
the rnarriage and what the rights of cach partncr will be. Those witnessing the man'iage may
be asked to pray for the couple. Howeveq polygamy is allowed in Islam and a husbancl may
have up to four wives provided all thc wives arc treated equally.
tr!.i ilti;i{ti itty l: ii!i;rtirr: r,,

Environment protection is an important aspect in lslam. The religion cmphasizcs on


cottservation andpreservatiort ofthe environment and its natural resources. Prophet Muhammad
encouraged the planting of trees and cultivation which are considered as good acts. Cutting
dowu or destruction of plants and trees unnecessarily is not allowed. Islanr forbids wasting
of resources and destroying the environtnent. According to the Muslints, water is a basic
element of lit-e and should be used sparingly as people, plants and animals cannot live without
it. Islanr approaches the environmcnl t}om a stoward perspective, which is nranaging and
controlling of all the natural resources. The Quran also helps by teaching the conservative use
of tlrc resources and prohibitirrg excessive utiiisation of resources. In addition, the Muslims
believe that the abuse of natural resources hanns the balance of the environment.

Ways of ending substance abuse


Substhnce abuse affects people of all religions
and spiriiual backgrounds. In order to end
drug alruse, most religions should have programmes
that help to keef its followers, especially
the youths, occupied as idleness lnay lead to substance
abuse. christian drug treatrnent
programmes are also useful in ending substance
abuse. The progranlmes enable substance
abusers to participate in Biblo study and prayer nrectings.
Duringthese meetings, they learn
about the ch.stia, values which i,spires them
to stay sober.
Indigenous religiorl makes use of traditional leaders
to help end substa,ce abuse. Traditional
practices are put in place to develop culturally
sound substance abuse treatnrent progran,,,res.
There are several treatment programmes such as
clances and talking circles which are put i'
placc to help in solving thc issue of substance
abnsc. Talking circlesl;onsists of group therapv
in which participants sit in a circle, with group
elclers teading and discussing substa,ce abuse
problems' Traditional irealers also participate in
such treatrnent prograrnl,es.
The Islanric religion addresses the challengc of substanoe
abuse by enoouraging thcir
fbllowers to remember the ahnighty Allah urd to seek
hirn. This trotivut"s und inspires the
individuals to overcome acldiction. This relationship with
Allah and performing the five daily
prayers at proper times also help in ending substance
abuse. The Jervish communify has also
been faced with challenges of substance abuse. support
groups and organisations such as
the Jewish centre for Adcliction and Prevention,
Heli and Hope have beei fbrmed to provide
outreach services.
substance abuse treatment professionals are involvecl
in treating and providing counselling
to individuals and families whose lives have been aft'ccted
by substance abusc. The religious
teacltings of Judaism also provide a structure that
supports rehabilitation and recovery. In
addition, the Torah and the Talmud, provide sacred texis
on coping rvith substance abuse and
other diseases.

Different religions view professional rnedical care clifferently.
Indigenous religion
The Indigenous Religion has solne health practices which
differ from profbssional medical
care prastices. In Indigenous religion, cliseases arc cured
using natural herbs taken from parls
of plants such as roots, leaves or the bar:k. Diseases are often caused
by attacks from evil or
bad spirits' Traditional healers play a leading role in providing
medical care .There are claims
within thc Indigcnous religion that thcrc arc toxins {buncl in rvcstcrn
mcclicines and that some
people get reactions from the medicine. The religion
also blames the prolessional meclical
care for atternpting to ctue certain diseascs like fits which
they belie* ur. causcd by evil
spirits.
Christianify
Christians put faith in Gocl and Jesus christ fbr the healing process.
However, Christians
allow their followers to receive medical'care but the only p.rron
who heals is God. The
Christian commutlity tookpart in the building of many hospiials. professional
health care is
viewed by Christians as a sacrifice. Prevcntion of'diseases, treating
the sick and empowering
healthy lives for the country is a sacrifice. Hou,ever, some
Christian denominations do not
allow its tnetnbers to seek prot-essionalrnedical carc. Thc religious teaching
of sorneApostolic
grollps emphasise faith healirrg and sticking to church heliefs
and practices rather thzur seeki'g
healthcare. They recollltrtend prayer only as a supplcnrcnt
to rnedical carc.
Islam
Muslims' approach to health care is for preventative measLlres. preventative
healthcare
strategies are also put in practice such as personal hygiene,
dietary measures such as the
restriction in eating specific foods like pork and it's by-products
and drinking alcohol is
practiced to reduce illnesses' However, Muslirn patients
seek nredical care but they still look
to theirreligious and culfirral heritagc to addrcss their hcaltlr and
wellbeinq
Judaism
Judaism views the provision of health care as an obligation
to the whole society. In that
regard, the Jewish listed health cal'e on the ten most important
communal servic., ihut a city
lnust r'rffcr to its residcncc. Tl:e Jews provide guidclincs tr: nrcclical
profbssionals to follow
when treating and caring for Jewish patients. The guidelines ipclucle jewish
dietary laws and
rnedical ethics. The Jews forbid contraception or iamily planning
unless t6c woman,s healtl
is at risk' In Judaism. if a patient distrusts a physician ancl his
or her recommendation it is
permissible to reflisc the proposed treatrrrent.

Problerns afiecting international relationships


International relations are more positive and solve
many issues. However, problems and
challenges can develop in international relations.
Some olthe challenges are as follows:
Political
Most nations desire to havc great political powers. Tllerefore,
a country can tlesire t, be more
powerful in international relations so as to be able
to rule over the othlr country. In addition,
political power gives a country more influence and recognition
globally.
Economic
Ecottomic prohlem arise wheu one of the involvecl countries
clesires to have more economic
benefits frorn the relationship tlran the othcr. Such problems
were noted between England and
Zimbabwe on the land issue.

Legal
Every international relationship has binding tcrms whioh
should be followed. Legal problerns
ernanate when the other party fails to own up to tlie
responsibilities entrusted to it.
Environmental
This is when the involved parties begin to have differe,ces
in ownership of the environmerlt
or nattual resources such was the case of the zambeziRiver
between zainbiaand Zinrbabwc.
A cotrntry might have mining relations with another. However.
the mi,ing activities can learl
to environntental issues such as pollution and degradation
in the other country.

Benefi ts of international relationships


International relationships are of great value. Thcy
are noted to be beneficial as they add.ress
issues such as globalisation, diplomatic relations,
state sovereignty, intemational security,
ecological sustainabilit}', nuclear proliferation, nationalism,
."orro-i" development, global
finance, terrorism and humafl rights. In the case
of Zinrbabwe, internationa] relations are
highly beneficial as noted from the points bclow;
' Improving the economy of the country through firancial support
. Maintenatrce of peace and tranquility
' Enriching the cultures of the country through exchange programs
' Enabling the country to be recognised on tlrc, global
econonric markcts

Ciender ns n social construct


Sirrce gender are the roles given to nrasculinity and lbnrininity by the society,
it therefbre
is a social copstruct. T[is nrcans tliat only thc society can decide on which roles arc to bc
niasculirrc and are to be t'enrininc. The society does this by setting standarcls fbr rr,lasculinity
and fepripinity. Thercfbre, the society's bcliet.s, nonns, values and attitudcs are thc
thctors

m
that shape gender. Since societies are different fi'om each other, gender is also constructed
differently in each and every society.
Gender rolcs
Gender roles are the duties that are expected of lnalcs and females. These differ from
society
to society depending on the norrns of the society. The following are gender roles that
used to
prevail in societies and comtnunities but are not encoruaged as they create gender
inequality;
' Only men can be leaders, breadwinners, venture into politics and do heavy manual
labour such as hunting, building and mining. Both males and fernales can perform
these rolcs and there should be a balance irr such r.olcs.
' Only wonlcn uan tcnd to childrcrt and pcrtbrrl housu ulrorcs such as sweeping,
cooking, f-etching water, laundering and sewing. Both males and fbmales can perfbrm
these tasks and it is encouraged to share such roles so as to create and maintain
gender equality.
' Gender inequality creates imbalances across socictics by making one gender seem superior
to the other. Gender inequality is the process of limiting roles only to eitlrer males or females.
This is ltannfirl as it prevents individuals frorn assuming any roles t6ey desire. Therefore,
gertder equalih, should always be supported and encouraged.

3,2 Gender Based Violence (GBV)

OBJECTIVES
Learners should be able to:
. describe the different forms of Gender-Based violence
, identisr the hamful consequences of Gender-Based violence

Different forms of Gender-Based Violence


Ge,der-Based Violence (GBV) can be described as violence that is done to an
individual
based on their gender. Such violence is found in four basic forms that al'e as
fbllows:

Physical
This is vioience that d.irectly affects the body of an individual in a physical manner'
material'
Examples include beating or hitting an individual using hands, legs or any other
Physical violeuce directly hurt the body and cause pain'

Emotional
Emotional violence is when pain is inflicted ol1 an individual resulting in hurting one's
feelings. This fornr ofviolence happens when one hurts another verbally such as saying
hurtful
words. It could be in shouting or continuous uttering of words or terms that are negative
towards an individual.

Sexual
This is violence that is perpetrated to an individual by means of forced sexual activitics.
Such
sexual
violence can be in the form of fondling of an individual's private body parts, kissing or
intercourse. Sexual violence or abuse can also occur when one exposes another to
sexual
activities such as showing or watching pomographic materials.

rffiI
r^a.i
Economic
Economic violence happens 'when one ovelpowers the other in
the control of monetary
properties' This mainly involves depriving an indiviclual
of economic resources that are
necessary for sutvival such as money. It can rnostly be
scen when parents or caregivers deprive
children of money or giving them very little money or financial
resources. Economic viole,ce
can also be in stealing one's monetary posscssions.

Gender-Based \/iolence and uncqual power distrihution


GBV is caused by gender inequality as a result of unequal power dish-ibution.
uncqual power
distribution between men ancl women includes the rigicl gender roles,
nolms and hierarchies.
Tl.rerefore, promotion of gender equality can prevent thc
violence against women.
