I attended the Asian parliamentarians on "Preventing and Responding to Violence against Women and Girls: From Legislation to Effective Enforcement" and presented on how to engage men and boys for violence prevention, and how to make public policy that effectively incorporates prevention approaches. I also conducted final stages of data collection for the MP research project. The MPs report is now currently under going peer review.
