Course Duration: 30 Hrs

About Course

Even though, gender violence is a global phenomenon, however, it assumes a significant character is third world societies or developing countries where violence is perpetuated at every level in a woman’s life. India is no exception to this. The cases of gender violence are increasing, many of which go unreported or unregistered. This is because India is a place where women are taught not to get raped, but men are not taught to not to rape. But for the moment, it is particularly important for women in India to learnSelf-Defence for their own safety and survival. Studies have shown that criminals choose those targets more that are unaware of their surroundings and what is going on around them. It is always the psychology of a criminal to choose soft targets who are vulnerable therefore not in a position to retaliate. An attack can happen in any form at any time. In fact, over the years, some students at the college have complained of some sort of harassment by a different sex on their way to college. As a result, Plassey College came up with the idea of starting a Self-Defence Programme of 30 hours that would arm students with the necessary skills to defend themselves. More so, the course is poised to instill confidence among girl students to deal with adverse situation in all walks of their lives.
