Office of Gender Affairs & HM Prison discuss gender-focused initiatives
Director of the Office of Gender Affairs Ms Patricia Hackett said the discussions were fruitful and that she envisions a long-term partnership with His Majesty's Prison that can drive gender-related affairs in the carceral system.
“This meeting was a good and positive meeting. I can see a good partnership coming out of it with the prison service and the Office of Gender Affairs, Ministry of Health and Social Development. I think it's a good idea for us to introduce the Partnership for Peace: A Violence Intervention Programme again in the prison,” Ms Hackett said in Government Information Service (GIS) press release published February 9, 2024.
The Gender Affairs Director added, “I think it is also a good idea for us to conduct sessions on gender awareness in the workplace to give people a perspective of the importance of gender-related issues and gender and development in the workplace. So, I can see this initiative going further.”
‘Hopefully’ Partnership for Peace can be launched soon- Jay Kendall
Meanwhile, Superintendent of His Majesty’s Prison Mr Jay Kendall said this partnership is part of the prison's mandate to rehabilitate inmates and allow for functioning members of society once released and also allows a smooth reintegration process.
Mr Kendall said, “It was a very positive meeting in terms of planning staff training around gender awareness and hopefully to roll that out to some prisoners and a really good discussion around Partnership for Peace and hopefully we can launch that soon for both male and female prisoners."
The Superintendent added, “We look forward to building our rehabilitation programmes and combine what we do in terms of vocational skills and qualifications for prisoners but also expanding that into offending behaviour and change modification programmes.”
In addition, Gender Mainstream Lead in the Foreign Commonwealth Development Office Ms Maria Stanley said the meeting was a great way to see stakeholders come together to look for ways to progress on all matters relating to gender equality and equity.

Gender cult has arrived in the BVI. Why are all the faces of Gender awareness campaign women? These gender awareness campaigns can inadvertently marginalize men's issues, suggesting a broader approach that includes men's experiences and challenges is necessary for true gender equality.
These covert SDGS from the page of UNITED Nations Agenda 21 to 2030 copy and pasted into our NSDP 2027 is more to emasculate men, promote women empowerment: continued destruction of the traditional family. Equality for all is not a fair assessment either in any of these topics and will be unbalanced marginalized one group, namely “REAL MEN”. This will always be a one-sided argument, if we start to campaign about men’s right etc., we'll be called sexist, chauvinistic and a whole dictionary of negative words. What about men being abused by women and their views. From there we go unto LGBTIQQ topics and why you can't use Gender terms He, She, Sir, Madam, His, Her etc. They say trust in the science, which is dynamic and corrupt, research is always ongoing and if a radical group of scientists said stupidity is now genius, we follow the nonsense. The “word which is the only truth” is what you should follow, this never changes. Science comes with something and call it proof and years later another lunatic disproves that argument and now who to believe and call it facts? One present his evidence as facts and another has his evidence as facts both world renowned and Nobel peace prize winners. One scientist of course is paid very handsomely from private interest and the other does his research independently. Which research do you think will receive more attention?
This is what’s happening right now with all this gender identity nonsense, we’ve been thought in school what is male and female and now you’re trying to tell me to be sensitive by recognizing a Male, Female and greeting them by saying sir, mam, his or her. Man get from here with this cult nonsense. The moral fabric of society is on a very thin line and gearing up for a major collapse and a reset is in the makes.
