This approach allows participants to discover and define the inequalities for themselves and decide together on means of action. During all seminars, the importance of women and men working and planning together for the benefit of the entire household is specifically highlighted. At the end of the seminars, couples may decide to register as Change Agents.

Change Agents are responsible to adhere to the principles of gender equality in their own households, and to promote gender equality in the wider community. They will receive training and coaching by Hired Gender consultant/ Gender Expert. The Change Agents will take up strong roles in sensitizing communities and encouraging their fellow community members to address gender inequalities that may exist in their homes by sharing their own experiences.
