Recognising Coercive Control Online Toolkit

#somethingdoesntfeelright

Daphne White, an educator and consultant from Geraldton, WA, was the recipient of the 2021 Stella Giles Award for Achievement, an initiative by Soroptimist International of Western Australia.  Daphne used the funding from this award to develop a free “Recognising Coercive Control” online toolkit that individuals or organisations can use to raise awareness of domestic and family violence and coercive control. Practitioners can also use it to share information with clients to help them identify patterns of tactics and behaviours of abuse or for education in secondary schools.

The toolkit launched on 30th November 2022, on Day 6 of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-based Violence.

SI Penang's Girls in STEM" workshop was held on July 31 at a local girls school today. The project focuses on creating awareness in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics for the girls. A total of 80 students participated in today's program.

This project has reached more than 360 female students in the 12-14 age group since it first began 3 years ago. The project highlights the need to create employment opportunities in STEM to support the Penang State's future human resource in the technology industry.

They were very honored to have a panel of guest speakers from Micron Memory Group which gave the students a lot of ideas, advice and encouragement. The workshop also included a sharing segment of career pathways by young female engineers and interactive activities with representatives from Women Leadership Network and Employee Resource Group.

SI Penang will continue to develop this project to motivate more underprivileged girls from a young age to plan their career pathways and future
