Breakthrough

Breakthrough is an organisation working to create a cultural shift and make discrimination and violence against girls and women unacceptable by transforming the gender norms that enable it. Cutting-edge multi-media campaigns, innovative school-based work and story-telling are our tools of choice, as we endeavour to make the subject of gender-based violence mainstream. We speak to our large and diverse audience in a language they can relate to, using mediums they respond to - such as music, new media, and popular culture. At Breakthrough, we inspire people to fight for the rights of women and girls by catalysing leadership in communities to change deep-rooted cultural norms that perpetuate gender based discrimination and violence. We currently work with 400,000 adolescents across 5 states through curriculums, trainings and campaigns that help them develop a stronger identity and the confidence to make their own life decisions.
