Stepping Stones is a training package in gender, HIV, communication and relationship skills. It is also sometimes described as a life-skills training package, covering many aspects of our lives, including why we behave in the ways we do, how gender, generation and other issues influence this, and ways in which we can change our behavior, if we want to. All the sessions use a participatory approach of non-formal learning through shared discussions and accompanying creative activities. All the exercises are based on participants’ own experiences. Role play and drawing exercises enable everyone to take part: no literacy is needed, so everyone relies on their own experiences equally.
