Key Information

Theatre for a Change (TfaC) is excited to announce a new opportunity for individuals interested in receiving facilitation training in TfaC’s methodology for gender equality and social change.

TfaC uses a unique combination of drama and participatory learning for the empowerment of marginalised and vulnerable women and girls, particularly in their sexual and reproductive health and rights.

Since 2003, the TfaC methodology has been used in over 10 countries worldwide for a range of gender equality and sexual and reproductive health and rights issues including HIV prevention, preventing and responding to sexual and gender-based violence, child marriage and early pregnancy, comprehensive sexuality education, and transforming harmful masculinities among men and boys.
