The aim of this project is to use community thatre as a vehicle for reducing violence against women and increasing womens' participation in civil society and peace making in the Solomon Islands.
It is a British Council community theatre project which will take place over the next two years, funded by the European Union and in collaboration with the British High Commission in Honiara.
The aim of the theatre project, which is being run by New Zealand theatre company The Conch in partnership with Solomon Islands NGO SIPPA, is to provide women with training in performance techniques and a platform for creative expression.
