Breaking the cycle of violence in Lebanon

To promote healthy relationship dynamics, Plan International Lebanon and its partner International Medical Corps introduced the Cycle of Violence Sessions as part of the Australian Humanitarian Partnership supported AMANI project, specifically addressing male participants in the community. These activities were tailored to effectively support individuals and families in navigating and overcoming conflict during the crisis.
The Cycle of Violence module consists of three sessions focusing on Life and Daily Stressors, the Cycle of Violence, and How to Deal with Stress. Through these sessions, participants were able to gain insight into the dynamics of power and control in relationships and families. They learned strategies to break harmful cycles and promote healthy, non-violent interactions. The sessions also encouraged participants to reflect on personal behaviors, challenges, and beliefs, while developing new skills for conflict resolution and effective communication.
