Our project focuses on the recent epidemic of domestic and sexual abuse. Apart from the most obvious potential result of loss of life, knife crime and use of illegal drags as can also be a contributing factor to preventing communities from progression, as well as creating anxiety in everyday life – in families, schools, and workplaces. As community members, we have a duty to work with other communities to enable a feeling of safety and security. We will run workshops in mosques on and communities. It will reduce the commonness, presence and harm of domestic and sexual violence and abuse on everyone. As many youths have no clue about the value of life. Our workshops and awareness of the repercussions that domestic, sexual abuse and forced marriege can definitaly reduce the abuses as we tell them if you fall in it can break all aspects of both the involved parties life. These workshops will be held with women and men and youths across the city, St Mathews, Evington, and highfield.

What we'll deliver:

  • We will deliver it according to the Strategic Objectives2019-2022: 1. Ensure effective awareness and prevention work
  • Many people do not feel that they will fall victim domestic or sexual abuse and so they do not openly discuss the issue.
  • We wish to change that perception through the education we have planned.

Why it's a great idea:

Our project is important and good idea, because: • It can remove the thought of aggressions and abuse from minds. • It can prevent a crime or number of crimes. • And it will decrease the amount of anger within the society. • It brings members of the community together. • Members of our communities will have a commitment to team up against these epidemics. The beneficiaries are the young people who are, or could be, victims of domestic violence. This includes: • Those who victimised or witnessed a domestic violence. • Those who use drags or sale drags. • Those carrying knives and those who are attacked with knives. • Our project will reduce it. Along with Hanan, there are 4 people who will support him in educating both youths and parents against domestic and sexual abuses. the only thing that gives us the desired result is sharing experiences, direct education, and working with communities, parents, and youth. Hanan is MA in global journalism from Coventry University.

Steps to get it done:

  • We will need a month time to negotiate the project with community leaders and Imams of the Mosques.
  • Their support will bring more attentions within the community,
  • at the mealtimes we will publish some vacancies on social media and job website.
  • We do this work immediately after approval of this project by visiting a community to talk to
  • the leader of the community on benefits of this project and benefits of working together.
  • On 2nd February 2020 we aim to visit Omar Masjid and we will have a
  • great discussion with the Imams and community leaders. We will finish these meetings on 29/02/2020,
  • then we will go to the next level. We will have 1 workshops each month, total of 5 workshops in 6months time.
  • 1. here we will search a hall and we will make rotas and event schedules and interview with the job applicants.
  • Beneficiary impact: The beneficiaries are the young people who are, or could be, victims’ crime.
  • This includes those carry out abuse and those who are attacked with knives.
  • We are very positive and sure that this project will decrease the level of above-mentioned crimes.
  • Ideally, we wish to help lower the amount of domestic violence
  • and forced marriage as well as sexual abuse within in Leicester.
  • Basically, these workshops will gradually reduce the amount of abuses that happen inside the homes.
  • And you know demostic violence has a negative impact on children within the families.
  • And forced marriage was so far a problem specially within asian and african communities.
  • So our work shops will help to alert people against forced marriage on legal bases.
  • and also it will have quite positive impact so people will avoide such an illegal act.

Ideally we wish to help lower the amount of knife crime within Leicestershire. Although we know that we cannot completely eradicate the problem, we know that our project will, at the very least, help raise awareness of knife crime statistics, repercussions and alternative ways to resolve differences within and between groups. More awareness means that it will be more visible to everyone and thus not something that can be ‘brushed under the carpet’. Many people do not feel that they will fall victim and so they do not openly discuss the issue. We wish to change that perception through the education we have planned. In 2016 Mr Abdul Hanan Habibzai initiated Helping Orphans. His career as a journalist and the increasing amount of violence occurring in his country of birth Afghanistan has taught him how to work with aggressors, and how to help them find their place in society, to feel responsible and productive for all and to work with his community and bring a good feeling of security.
