Gender
This page contains documents, audio and video resources on gender and violence against women.All these resources were produced as part of work by Hengasara Hakkina Sangha (HHS), an NGO working on issues of gender,rights and law in Karnataka. HHS works with women collectives, State departments, corporates, educational institutions, trade unions and media on issues of gender and law. Capacity building of rural women collectives to combat gender based violence, research and advocacy on issues of violence against women, law and support services for women facing violence, production of multi-media resources in local language on gender and rights, forms the main focus of HHS work. The materials here can be used by teahcers, activists and any one who is interested in gender, rights and law.
What is Gender?
Gender is a concept and an analytical tool used to explain and understand the power relations and differences between men and women in society. Gender is socially and culturally constructed differences between men and women. Therefore , the way gender works varies from place to place and time to time. Gender analysis has shown how certain norms privileges men,through imposition and reinforcement of gender norms and rules, society deprives women of rights, power, and resources. Traditional gender roles are a driving force behind women's lower economic status, low literacy and education, poorer health outcomes, and greater exposure to gender-based violence. Therefore, understanding gender, that men and women, boys and girls for example experience poverty or education differently and face different barriers in accessing services, economic resources and political opportunities has helped to understand marginalization women face better. This is in turn has informed the way development interventions in various parts of the world.

Violence Against Women (VAW)
Violence against women is most rampant human rights violation that happens around us. VAW is however, largely normalized by society. We see that unequal gender relations are socially and culturally endorsed and legitimized in various ways. VAW is a continuum of gender based discrimination and gender inequality , violence specifically is nothing but use of power to enforce gender norms. Violence and threat of violence becomes a major obstacle to women’s and girls’ development, and their welfare.
Gender and Rights based approach believes all human being have equal value. It acknowledges the power imbalances between the genders and seeks to address this through investing rights to women. Our constitution also guarantees equal rights to all citizens of this country. Women’s groups and women’s collectives used rights based approach to address marginalization that women experience in their lives. Rights based approach has addressed issue of VAW by using already existing rights that women have in legal provisions to make their lives better as well as ask for newer rights for equal and a just society.
