Parent Group 

Almost all (96%) of the parents were aware of the training organized by AMK on 

trafficking of girls and interpersonal communication. When asked about the usefulness of 

the training, almost all (99%) of the respondents expressed that the training was useful 

for their daughters. However, they categorized the usefulness in three ways: `very 

useful,' `useful' and `somewhat useful.' Two thirds (66%) of them said that the training 

was very useful to their daughters, and nearly one third (32%) said it was  useful. Those 

citing somewhat useful and not useful were almost nonexistent (Table 5.4.10).  

When asked why they found the training very useful or useful, the respondents expressed 

different views to support their statement. Nearly two thirds (65%) of the  respondents 

said that that the training was useful to them as their daughters gained knowledge of 

trafficking of girls at the right time. More than two thirds (36%) mentioned that their 

daughters were empowered to speak and put their views in front of a group and nearly 

one third (32%) of the respondents reasoned the usefulness of the training as it informed 

them of the various prevention measures for trafficking attempts. Other reasons for the 

usefulness of the training were cited by the respondents but in very small proportions 

(Table 5.4.10). 

A large majority (82%) of the parents had interacted and communicated what they had 

learnt from their daughters to others. A majority (72%) of them had communicated with 

their neighbours. Similarly nearly one  third (31%) and more than one fourth (27%) of 

them had communicated with their daughters and relatives respectively (Table 5.4.11). 

Almost all (92%) of the respondents expressed that the training organized by AMK on 

trafficking of girls and interpersonal communication had a positive influence on their 

daughters and that they could see changes in them. A majority (71%) of parents seeing 

the positive changes in their daughters cited the growing capability of their daughters to 

talk about and discuss trafficking of girls issues with community members. Nearly half 

(45%) of the parents were found citing their daughters being confident enough to speak 

on and discuss any issue (Table 5.4.12).
