Talking About Sexual Harrasment: Amazing New Resource

Breaking the Silence About Sexual Harassment: Moroccans Speak Out is ready!

What Is It? 

New tools for PCVs in Morocco to kick start conversation about Sexual Harassment with their communities. The whole package includes:
  • Videos: A three part video featuring Moroccans talking about sexual harassment was produced by GlobalGirl Media in partnership with the GAD Committee. This is a video by Moroccans, for Moroccans. Each part is about 10 minutes long and you can easily show it in three parts or all at once.
  • Toolkit: Discussion questions and activities to accompany the video.
  • Posters: Want to publicize your screening? We've got posters available for you to put up.
  • Music: Original music composed especially for this video! MP3 files and lyric sheets are available.
Resources are in Arabic, English and French.

How Do I Get It?

Of course you are wondering "How do I get my hands on these amazing resources?" The Peace Corps library in Rabat has bound, hard copy toolkits and DVDs aplenty. You can take one for your own use and if you know of any associations or organizations that might use them, grab a copy for them too.

The USBs, containing all the resources in electronic format, are slightly fewer in number so you need to check them out of the library and promise to return them so we can have them available for those who come after you.

The resources are also available online on GAD Maroc Google Drive.

What Do I Do With It?

The toolkit guides you through showing and using the resources in your community. After you show the video, please let us know how it goes. What worked, what didn't? What could be better? We want this to be a resource for some time to come and the PCVs who come after you will benefit from your experience. Email us with your feedback. 

Who Made This Video?

This video is an amazing initiative with participants from Morocco, the international NGO GlobalGirl Media, the PC Morocco GAD Committee and oodles of PCVs and PC Staff in Morocco. Moroccan women from GlobalGirl Media drove the project from start to finish, creating a project that is truly "By Moroccans, for Moroccans."

Watch it, use it.
