Further towards the end dzongkhag Legal officer who currently represents the NCWC focal point at dzongkhag level presented on the domestic violence and sexual harassment in the workplace.
Domestic violence and sexual harassment is one sensitive matter which everyone knows but few come forward and discuss it openly. 
With such programs and initiatives we can address the above mentioned cases more openly and it is high time we take the gender equity and equality as one nation building factor.
Furthermore as an individual let us not ignore domestic violence and let us open our eyes and ears and fight unanimously in reducing violence against women, children and human being as a whole.
We the Dzongkhag Administration would like to thank all the participants for sharing their practical experiences while working in the field and the organisers for organising such an insightful program.
