On 19–24 January 2026, Association for the Development of Women and Legal Education (ADWLE) conducted training on Gender Equality within family relationships across 12 target villages in Laongam District, Salavan Province.

The aim is to encourage participants to understand the gender perspective, discuss equality and fairness, and lead to equal participation in rights, benefits and decisions within the family, especially between husbands and wives.

In addition to formal presentations, the sessions included interactive activities designed to encourage participation, such as posting messages, selecting images based on the lessons learned and engaging in Q&A discussions. The trainers then summarized the key points and presented examples for collective analysis. The atmosphere was characterized by enthusiastic participation, and an increase in the participants’ understanding was evident through their responses to questions following each lesson topic, as well as from the evaluation results
