The physical and psychological consequences of GBV inhibit a survivor’s functioning and well-being, not only personally but in relationships with family members.

COFAS under Hon. Elizabeth Akinyi Mökkönen therefore offer the GBV victims Education scholarship to shield them from societal prejudices because we believe that when a young girl is supported to acquire education, it will improve her world view and chances of survival without depending on anybody.

Education empowers women to change their environment and communities and also improves their chances of success in life. This is why Hon. Elizabeth Akinyi Mökkönen offer full scholarship to the victims of GBV who are willing to go continue with their education.
