Participants engaged in in-depth conversations about the connection between militarism, gender disparities, and conflict, gaining valuable insights into these intricate matters. The training provided a fresh outlook on how conflicts influence communities, with a particular focus on Ethiopia's experiences. #PositiveMasculinity #wedefenddefenders
